Pack your stuff,
save your money,
be ready to go... just in case

I'm not sure if this post deserves the tin-foil hat picture or not, but let's just say that it does so we can all laugh about it in 2010.
I hope.
First of all, read this official FBI site, "all about" something called Infragard. Then read this report from Agitprop. Oh, come on, you're saying, that's just some left-wing nut job. Okay, how about this one from Alternet? Again, maybe it is all paranoia. But we have the most secretive, Authoritarian, power-hungry administration, perhaps ever in the history of the United States. They've had Halliburton build them detention camps, they've made habeas corpus dependent upon their own say-so, they've declared thier word to be all that they need for proof, they've essentially dismantled the just-passed congressionally-mandated FOIA law revisions, and throughout their reign they have shown nothing but contempt for the constitution and its many checks on Presidential power. I wouldnt normally be worried about just one of these things happening, but all of them together should worry anyone but the 25-percenters who think that George Bush and God are practically one and the same.
Somewhere in America we've got private armies, and they'll now have a "legal" right to kill civilians should they "feel threatened", and do so without being held accountable. This sounds much like the situation that existed in Iraq, with Blackwater. That's the same Blackwater which is attempting to set up a 2nd base of operations somewhere on the West Coast. Ever hear of the classic pincher manuever?

Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?

Yeah, I'm crazy, I know. But, again, if you had to fit everything you really needed into a 6x8 U-haul, what would you take? Now might be a good time to think about that. Or else hope that sheep have very sharp teeth.

Pros to Spiiderweb.
