Fear is the best method for control. Just look at the religion. You will do anything to stay away from hell. You will fly planes into the buildings, blow yourself up, make people believe weird things (like WMD's) just so you can be in heaven and avoid burning in hell. Any rational human being will see through that. Following is the best quote i have heard in a while: Good people do good things, bad people do bad things, but only religion can make a good people to do bad things.

Bush and the Republicans were not protecting us on 9-11, and we aren't a lot safer now. We may be more afraid due to george bush, but are we safer? Being fearful does not necessarily make one safer. Fear can cause people to hide and cower. What do you think? How does that work in a democracy again? How does being more threatening make us more likeable?Isn't the country with the most weapons the biggest threat to the rest of the world? When one country is the biggest threat to the rest of the world, isn't that likely to be the most hated country? If ever there was ever a time in our nation's history that called for a change, this is it! We have lost friends and influenced no one. No wonder most of the world thinks we suck. Thanks to what george bush has done to our country during the past three years, we do! Watch subject. Bush and the Republicans were not protecting us on 9-11, and we aren’t a lot safer now.

This administration has shown a blatant disregard for the law they are supposed to be implementing. The thing is they have absolutely NO legal argument for this eavesdropping. They had a legal channel to do it fast, effectively, and legally: FISA courts. These courts were established in 1978 (i think thats the year) in order to set up a channel through which the government can ask for a special secret court to give them a warrant on a very short term notice. In fact, they are legally authorized to eavesdrop and then try to obtain warrant 72 hrs after they start lisetning in on a conversation. This institutional check was built in to prevent the abuses of the government that Nixon administration engaged in: let's rememebr taht Nixon listened in on his political opponents and composed his "enemy lists" on the basis of these conversations. This is why a democratic system does not trust any administration because they are humans and as such they are corruptible by power. But no, Bush said that FISA is outdated without ever even trying to come up with an argument as to why this is. And this is not a partisan issue: far from it. Republicans as far right as Chuck Hagel and centre republicans like McCain and Arlen Specter have even stated that a criminal persecution is possible given that the administrations has violated federal law. So, childish execuses that: terrorists are gonna get stronger if we force this administration to obey the law, are just that--childish and plain stupid! STUPID! They have no legal, moral, or rational justification. None! They can still protect our country and obey the law which is why we are protecting this democratic country in the first place!
