When I first caught wind of the term "homeland security" I immediately thought "Nazis". And that was before we started sequestering rights and compromising basic freedoms. This torture bit only serves to further the analogy of a group that's too over-reaching for its own good, striving to eradicate a group of scapegoats before they harm our society. Oh, sorry George, its not "torture", its "enhanced interrogation." Of course that's what the Nazis called it too. And they were a little more squeamish than the Brush administration at the outset, not allowing hypothermia or water boarding. Pussies. How do you expect to make freedom without nearly drowning some people?
