Politics - War on Freedom

Ok... So we've established that the president can impose a limit to our freedoms and that three years without charge if you are combatant in the "War on Terrah" is acceptable. So can Dubya extend this new presidential power to the "War on Drugs" or the "War on Illiteracy"? What about the "War on Poverty"?

Caught you with 1/4 ounce of pot? Three years in prsion, no lawyer, no trial, next!
Can you read this? No? Three years in prsion, no lawyer, no trial, next!
Give me a $100.00. Can't do it? Three years in prsion, no lawyer, no trial, next!

This needs to go to the Supreme Court before it happens again.

If Padilla is guilty, fuck him. Shoot him in the head on the street corner at noon. But give the guy a fair trial.
