It summons you to secret courts (star chambers), it forces anyone who knows anything about you to tell all ... it likely removes waxy buildup, too.<BR/><BR/>Lemming, you're correct about what America's getting. We're collectively complicit in the doings of BushCo. The consequences are self-inflicted ... again, in the collective sense. Trouble is, they're felt by individuals. And, really, I never, ever voted for that little sawed-off Mussolini. Never!<BR/><BR/>(On the other hand, I haven't made any real effort to overthrow his sorry butt, either ...)Jim Wetzelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07358539074647113747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9748383.post-1139967573708402882006-02-14T20:39:00.000-05:002006-02-14T20:39:00.000-05:00[The deal] also alters the conditions of the Natio...<I>[The deal] also alters the conditions of the National Security Letter, a type of order for a person to appear in secret court.</I><BR/><BR/>I wonder how these are delivered?
