Oh, we've switched back from dimwitted Bullwinkle Bush to Emperor Palpatine. Have you thought of carrying a signal card so we can tell which of these two completely logically incompatible Bushes you're trying to sell us at a given time?

I think, despite all the screeching about what the Republicans "might" do, we all know which of the two political parties over the past fifty years has done more to actually concentrate total power in a central government. They've done it the smart way, slowly, by making citizens dependent upon them and increasing controls over private activity bit by bit, rather than by using soldiers and fear, which goes to show that powerseekers have learned a few things since Stalin and Hitler.

And it wasn't a Republican who dumped "suspected minorities" into camps.
