Installing Big Brother or what is hidden in the Bushes

In the 1970's the Nixon administration was getting close to a police state. The Bushmen who were there then and are back now with Bush junior liked it that way and want it back that way.
911 was all part of the plan to install Big Brother.

An operation known as Able Danger reportedly turned up information on and tracked hijacker Mohammad Atta as far back as 1998, but the Pentagon wouldn�t tell the FBI what it knew. Even now, the Bush administration is fighting to prevent the Able Danger officials from testifying before Congress about what they knew and when they knew it. When it comes to intelligence, the only thing worse than the FBI�s record is the CIA�s.
Given all that�s happened, the only explanation for the Bush domestic spying is that it�s political. There are no crimes involved here. But there is an overweaning desire by this so-called conservative government to establish and i"
