Absolutely!! The Bush Administration, aided and abetted by the incompetent ineffectives of the present Congress, have taken us closer to this than anyone since the suspension of habeas corpus by Abe Lincoln during the Civil War (War of Northern Aggression).

Itamazes methat Englishmen, in order to try to obtain a little temporary personal safety, have surrendered their age-old liberties to a usurping government. What is even more startling is that it appears that MOST Brits are just tickled to death to do so! What shrivelled lives they must live! Even the Queen can no longer ride to hounds in her own realm!
