I don't generally like to copy & paste a post from someone else's blog - but this was so short and straight-to-the-point, I really couldn't think of anything important to add to it, except that, yes... yes we are.

What does it mean when the highest law enforcement official in the country refuses to be sworn in under oath before testifying in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee on the President's use of the National Security Agency to spy on Americans?

It's a bad thing, right?

And how about this new assertion that the President has the power to have people executed on U.S. soil without first bringing them before a jurry of their peers?

That's bad too, right?

I'm beginning to suspect that we're completely fucked.
