Remember how everyone was up in arms about Bush II having “terrorism suspects” detained indefinitely at Guantanamo without trial or charges?

Remember how the Obama campaign promised us “Change we could believe in” and was going to undo all that bad shit the Bush administration did?

Well, you’ll doubtless be relieved to hear, then, that the bad old days when George W. Bush got Congress to let him detain terrorism suspects indefinitely without charges or trial are gone forever.  Now, it’s Barack Obama, who’s bypassing Congress to detain terrorism suspects indefinitely without charges or trial.

Feel the hope! See the change!

Yes, that’s “change” as in “The more things change, the more they stay the same.”

Hmm. It seems that the MORE things change, the MORE they stay the SAME. Looks like Obama has pulled enough wool over the American eyes to keep the Australian Wool industry going for a decade.
