Even more alarming, there are already over 800 prison camps in the United States, all fully operational and ready to receive prisoners.
This is extremely frightening especially now that the Bush administration is on a direct path to war with Iran and facing growing dissension within America.
"Almost certainly this is preparation for a roundup after the next 9/11 for Mid-Easterners, Muslims and possibly dissenters," says Daniel Ellsberg, a former military analyst who in 1971 released the Pentagon Papers, the U.S. military's account of its activities in Vietnam.
The Censure resolution proposed by Russ Feingold (watch the new video about Censure) is only the tip of the iceberg of what needs to be done NOW to stop this dangerous Administration. We must elect a Congress that will stand up to the Bushies, and we must begin investigating the Administration for the numerous abuses of power that have already occurred. This is not a partisan issue, this is a question of whether this nation will continue to survive as a democratic republic.
I ask all of you to join me and voice your opposition to this war obsessed Republican regime in Washington on Saturday April 22 in Plattsburgh... while you still can.
Some Executive Orders that can be activated by Bush in "a time of emergencency," simply with a Presidential signature:

-allows the government to seize and control the communication media.
EXECUTIVE ORDER 11000

"If this were a dictatorship, it would be a heck of a lot easier - just so long as I'm the dictator."

If you want to read another article on Halliburton's camps, click on my blogger name (The article is from the Progressive).
I don't think that it's for Arabic "enemy combatants". I think there's something even more sinister afoot, if you can believe it.
Take a look at the resurgence in immigrant issues in recent months. Then take a look at the bills that are being proposed in Congress ... to make illegal immigrnats felons, and to levy a fine when they get caught.
Most immigrants won't be able to pay ... and if they aren't deported right away (and most won't be), they'll be put ... where? In the newly-build-by-Halliburton detention camps until they can be "processed"!
And so we come full circle. Illegal immigration issues used as a tool to make a few more billion dollars for the President, Veep, and their friends. The Republicans in Congress pandering to their redneck, racist constituents and assisting in the stealing of more taxpayer dollars for direct deposit into Halliburton's bank account. Gee, I wonder if the VP's stock options will go up with all of this new contruction? I think we all know the answer.
