The House voted late Thursday to rewrite the nation's domestic wiretap laws,

giving President Bush new power to monitor the email and phone records of US

citizens during terrorism investigations without having to obtain court

approval.

The US has lost its status as the world's most competitive economy,

according to the World Economic Forum. The US now ranks only sixth in the

body's

league table of global competitiveness, behind Switzerland, Finland, Sweden,

Denmark and Singapore. Risks attached to the large US trade and fiscal

deficits

prompted its fall.

Sen. Patrick Leahy Blasts Congressional Approval of Detainee Bill

 

The Senate has agreed to give President Bush extraordinary power to detain

and try prisoners in the so-called war on terror. The legislation strips

detainees of the right to challenge their own detention and gives the President

the power to detain them indefinitely.

The Breaking Point

More than a half trillion dollars in 3 years.

The war is bankrupting the nation while grooming the next generation’s

terrorists. This is the very definition of failure.

THE NEW WORLD DISORDER

Bush 'super-state' documents sought

FOIA request filed to expose plans for 'North American union'

Government documents released by a Freedom of Information Act request reveal

the Bush administration is running a " shadow government " with Mexico and

Canada in which the U.S. is crafting a broad range of policy in conjunction

with

its neighbors to the north and south, asserts WND columnist and author

Jerome R. Corsi.

" The documents clearly reveal that SPP, working within the U.S. Department

of Commerce, is far advanced in putting together a new regional

infrastructure, creating a 'shadow' trilateral bureaucracy with Mexico and

Canada that is

aggressively rewriting a wide range of U.S. administrative law, all without

congressional oversight or public disclosure, " Corsi said.

The Deeper Evil Behind the Detainee Bill

_http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/100206A.shtml_

(http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/100206A.shtml)

Chris Floyd writes: " It was a dark hour indeed on Thursday when the United

States Senate voted to end the constitutional republic and transform the

country into a 'Leader-State,' giving the president and his agents the power to

capture, torture and imprison forever anyone - American citizens included -

whom they arbitrarily decide is an 'enemy combatant.' This also includes those

who merely give 'terrorism' some kind of 'support,' defined so vaguely that

many experts say it could encompass legal advice, innocent gifts to charities

or even political opposition to US government policy within its draconian

strictures. "

_Bush Special Envoy & Carlyle Group In Scandal Over Iraqi Debt Relief_

(http://www.guardian.co.uk/Iraq/Story/0,2763,1326037,00.html)

Mr Baker's Carlyle Group is in a consortium secretly proposing to try to

collect $27bn (£15bn) on behalf of Kuwait, one of Iraq's biggest creditors, by

using high-level political influence. It claims Mr Baker will not benefit

personally, but the consortium could make millions in fees, retainers and

commission as a result.
