If George Bush is elected: the police will be free to set dogs on
If George Bush is elected: the police will be free to set dogs on suburban housewives at "routine" checkpoints.

A little while back the Supreme Court had to decide whether the state can, with no probable cause to think a person had done anything whatsoever, subject law-abiding drivers to random checkpoint searches with police dogs. In their decision they said that setting dogs on random citizens reeked of Nazi Germany. The decision was 5-4 (or was it 6-3?)

If Bush is elected that decision will be overturned.

This is #114 on a series of 130 recent Supreme Court decisions that will be overturned if Bush is elected. To see the rest of the series go look at a list all Supreme Court decisions from the last decade that were decided by margins less than 7-2. I don't have such a list, but somebody must... right? (Please post it when you find it or compile it)

2. Bush =Hitler
In additions to the police being able to sic dogs on defenseless women and children he will also give the power to round up liberals and put them into concentration camps. All of us here at DU have realized that Bush is a Hitler disciple. As such he has painted liberals as all of Americas problems and will actively pursue an "Final solution." And it has often been stated in this forum Bush is the worst dictator ever. This simply proves it.

3. The Supreme Court is indeed the big plum
and doesn't get enough lip service. Awful thought would be Bush* stealing a second term with the opportunity to swing the court....Shit, that would become his legacy and our downfall. Move over Reagan.
