Despite The Fact That They Always Get The Intelligence Wrong, The Bushies Find New People To Spy Upon

Now we're going to invade Europeans' privacy because - well - because President Bush figures he's king of the world and he has the right ("so there, nyah-nyah," as Spurious George would say it). Story goes that we've done some deal so we can snoop in the email and credit card records of Europeans visiting the U.S.

That should help our declining tourism industry, eh?

With no joke intended, I really can't imagine why anyone bothers to visit the U.S. anymore. We make everyone's life hell and, with the way the Bush Administration murdered habeas corpus even faster and more effectively than they hung Saddam Hussein, we can just disappear any European we want, without saying we're holding them, much less why.
