Ann Bartow points to this very odd and worrying incident: VA Nurse Investigated for ‘Sedition’ for Criticizing Bush:
Laura Berg is a clinical nurse specialist at the VA Medical Center in Albuquerque, where she has worked for 15 years.
Shortly after Katrina, she wrote a letter to the editor of the weekly paper the Alibi criticizing the Bush Administration.
After the paper published the letter in its September 15-21 issue, VA administrators seized her computer, alleged that she had written the letter on that computer, and accused her of “sedition.”
That’s right: writing a letter to the editor accusing the administration of “criminal negligence” gets you investigated for sedition in today’s USA.
“Terrorist Plot foiled in New Mexico”
“uhhh, this is just one of the countless examples of why we have to permanently extend the Patriot Act”…
Bush on the stump at any of the military bases he photo-ops at.
