Posse Comitatus (sp? That's the law/principle that stops the USG from using the US military as a police force) has been repealed.
Habeus Corpus (the right to challenge detention) still repealed for Gitmo prisoners.
The UK has announced a time table for withdrawing from Iraq, yet the White House doesn't think them leaving will "embolden" our enemies.
Iran wants to talk but the US won't stop being hypocritical about nukes. You've got to admit that the US having nukes but not allowing Iran to have them is pretty racist/ethnocentric.
Apparently, there's going to be a permanent US military base someplace in Africa--but WHY?
There's been more news on that new Iraqi law that hands massive oil profits over to private oil companies (hey, weren't oil profits supposed to pay for the Iraq war??).
And those few examples are seriously the tip of the iceberg. Watch for post on those topics and more in the coming days. Until then please google them to learn more.
