eh... heh. looks like it's been in the works for a while.
Yes, it is terrifying, that now it's so very out in the open, almost daring someone to stand up and say, "Hm... remember that habeas corpus thing? 'member how that's the first thing to go away when you have a government that's about to go really, really, really bad?"
I'm standing up and saying that, at least... a few thousand others, too.
