Scary. I'm sleeping with the lights on again tonight. Is it just me or is the gaurds asking him if he's gonna write a book on it sound like a threat? And I'm still not clear why he was grabbed. I have a sneaking suspicion it's because he was a whistleblower. This is the problem with suspending habeus corpus. Pretty soon they'll be able to detain anybody, for any reason, including speaking out against crimes commited by the goverment.

I guess they got him because they viewed his speaking out against them as a threat.

That's unbelievably scary. The longer Bush is in the office the worse it is going to get. He and and Cheney are fascists.
