Is Bush the only person who read "1984" and saw merit in Big Brother?

Holy cow. What is it with this administration and the rule of law? Is it so difficult to prove their terror cases without torture and "secret" evidence and charges that they cannot EVEN share with defendant?

Even the military is finding the Administration demands a little scary.

From testimony by Brig. Gen. James C. Walker, U.S. Marine Corps staff judge advocate:

"I'm not aware of any situation in the world where there is a system of jurisprudence that is recognized by civilized people, where an individual can be tried and convicted without seeing the evidence against him. And I don't think that the United States needs to become the first in that scenario."
