And You Thought There Was No Way Bush Could Grab More Power
The front page story in tomorrow's New York Times will be an announcement and examination of George W. Bush's signing of a directive that gives him even greater control over much greater control over "the rules that the federal government develops to regulate public health, safety."
Bush has now declared that every federal regulatory agency must have a regulatory policy office headed by a political appointee. This will tighten the presidential control that already shocked anyone paying attention, especially with regard to the so-called Envrionmental Protection Agency, which is now merely a large sham supported by taxpayers.
Read all about it in tomorrow's Times.

Is GWB USA's first real-life Stalin?
Ok, Stalin was more much intelligent and articulate, but the idea of political commissaries seems adopted from the communist one with the agents that infiltrated all life in the Soviet Union.

He knows that if He does as told, he will be immune. They have control and they have the military, cia and corporate troops to back them up. If congress and the people give them serious trouble, they will just send congress home. It's been threatened in the past. Remember, under the constitution, the Pres. has no right to write laws, that belongs to congress, they must take it back!
