Dalton McGuinty promised a review when he brought in Ontario's health tax, he now says since he has no intention of repealing it, the review is purely technical. Mulroney and the Conservative government said they wanted a public inquiry into the Schreiber affair - but now that it might address Schreiber's manipulations of Canadian right wing politics going back to the putsch against Joe Clark, they've changed their minds. - New Orleans and the Shock Doctrine in action
The elites use the aftermath of Katrina to destroy the public sector and bulldoze affordable housing. - 'They never specified they wanted videotapes'
The CIA lamely justifies destroying evidence of torture. - The GOP created a monster and now it's terrorizing the countryside
The religious right is supposed to vote for who the Republicans tell them to and keep their mouths shut afterward. Not actually get any real power. The Chickens come home to roost and the GOP elite are terrified. - It depends what the meaning of 'I saw my father march with Martin Luther King' is

J Edgar planned mass arrests, secret detentions and the suspension of Habeas Corpus in the 50's. Over 12,000 'subversives' would have been disappeared if the plan had been approved. - Canada's 'new' government: Environmental criminals
The Harper Government's deliberate obstruction in Bali was a national embarrassment.
