When the patriot act was frantically passed by a terrified nation in 2001, it was loudly proclaimed the Act would only target "terrorists." But guess what? The patriot act has been used against American citizens engaging in petty crimes. It has even been used to label animal rights activists "terrorists" for merely attending meetings that sought to free animals from corporate torture experiments (testing cosmetics, chemicals and the like).

I'm fairly certain that when lawmakers signed the patriot act, they weren't thinking of abortion rights protestors and animal rights activists, but laws have a way of expanding their scope far beyond their original intent. Thanks to the patriot act, the very act of sitting in a room with a friend and discussing the evils of the American government can get you labeled a terrorist engaged in a conspiracy (if anyone happens to be listening, of course).

Since 9/11 and the passage of the ill-designed patriot act (which, if anything, is traitorous, not patriotic), it seems that the U.S. government is aggressively expanding its powers to search records, tap phones and surveil electronic messages, all in an effort to conduct Gestapo-like profiling operations on its own citizens. It is now a well-known fact, for example, that domestic phone calls and e-mails are now tracked and recorded by the U.S. government, then mined for "dangerous" words which are linked back to those callers.

Bush Administration announces effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through "wishful thinking" (satire) Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Individual citizens will also be required to engage in Wishful Thinking to stop global warming, and those Americans who refuse to participate will be branded "eco terrorists" under a little-known provision in the patriot act that grants FBI agents the legal right to give atomic wedgies to anyone demanding civil liberties. Not everyone is convinced that Wishful Thinking will actually result in greenhouse gas emissions reductions. Lawmakers were quick to leap on the obvious weakness in President Bush's ambitious plan. Rep.

Thanks to the patriot act, the very act of sitting in a room with a friend and discussing the evils of the American government can get you labeled a terrorist engaged in a conspiracy (if anyone happens to be listening, of course). Now let's consider the FDA's CAM Guidelines in which the agency states it could regulate vegetable juice as a drug as long as the juice is sold with the intent to improve health. The document specifically mentions massage oils and herbs as being subject to regulation, too.

Just like the RICO Act and the patriot act, the FDA's CAM Guidelines could one day exceed their intended purpose and be used against Americans in ways we never imagined possible. How do you boil a frog? Those commentators in the natural health movement who are telling you there's nothing to worry about here are regretfully failing to see where this is all headed. The FDA, you see, is smart enough to know it can't just announce a massive, sweeping ban of everything in the world of natural medicine. Too many people would march in the streets.

Counterthink roundup: Free Speech, Google News, and Big Brother (satire) Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

REPPED: New provisions in the patriot act, which are about to become law, will make it a felony crime for protestors to step foot outside official "protest zones" designated by the U.S. Secret Service. This is how President Bush expands the freedom of Americans -- by giving them all the freedom they want, as long as they stay in their little fenced cages. These free speech zones, by the way, will be drawn in chalk on the sidewalk, and will be slightly smaller than a pair of size six sneakers. Apparently Bush doesn't like protestors.

Bird flu solved! Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) to deport all undocumented birds (humor) Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Chapter IV, Section 8 of the patriot act. Citizens caught harboring undocumented birds in undeclared bird houses will be deemed "enemy combatants" and subjected to the whims of Tyson Foods foul interrogators. All birds made of white meat are hereby requested to report to their nearest INS facility for processing into Chicken McNuggets. Questions about these policies should be directed to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's food pyramid website, which has the same answer for everyone: "Drink more milk.

This act virtually ensures a continuing policy of UFO nondisclosure and other forms of secrecy, as is the 2001-02 patriot act. Repression in America is on the increase, I'm sad to report. I also believe that our allowing these secrets to prevail is but a part of allowing a pervasive cult of secrecy to rule us in an insidiously totalitarian way. This represents nothing less than our selling out.
