Due to various deadlines I’ve been working on, I’ve been a bit slow getting to this (and too many others). But now that it’s made it’s way to Drudge, I guess it’s “official” enough. <\/p>\n
In case you haven’t heard, eight Artists<\/b> in New York are now being subpoenaed towards the indictment of the artist who’s exhibit \/ performance art at a gallery in Buffalo has been confiscated by the FBI via claims of “BioTerrorism” as allowed in the dangerous and mis-enacted “USA Patriot Act”.<\/p>\n
I realize that the Rightwing Attack Monkeys have time and again instructed us how “Liberals” decry the “Patriot Act” as being dangerous, but that — in reality — it hasn’t proven to be dangerous at all. Think again, Attack Monkeys. It’s your<\/i> Federal Government that is now encroaching on citizens First Amendment rights with virtually no standards of proof whatsoever.<\/p>\n

Such an outrage, of course, if carried out by a Democrat<\/i> President (see: Waco) would be a crime worthy of Impeachment Petitions circulated by the Attack Monkeys, links to which would proudly be featured on Hannity’s website, and splashed across days and weeks of coverage on Fox News.<\/p>\n
As it’s enacted by a Republican<\/i> “President” on the other hand, the story has gone almost without notice. Isn’t the “Liberal” media strange that way?<\/p>\n
Read up on it<\/a> for yourself. See the details and sign a letter of support for the artists on their Defense Fund website<\/a>. And stop by the website of the artists<\/a>…er…bio-terrorists in question.<\/p>\n Or sit around and do nothing because 9\/11 is just so scary that you are willing to let your Federal Government, in the person of John Ashcroft, toss your US Constitution out the proverbial window and apply it to artists<\/i> who’s material challenges the political interests of the Bush Administration’s bio-tech cronies and contributors.<\/p>\n (Thanks to Brenda V. for having brought this to my attention several days ago!)<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Due to various deadlines I’ve been working on, I’ve been a bit slow getting to this (and too many others).
