Is there no end to the deviousness of Bush and his cronies? From today's Observer:

"Human rights campaigners are calling it the 'November surprise' - a last-minute amendment smuggled into a Pentagon finance bill in the US Senate last Thursday.
Its effects are likely to be devastating: the permanent removal of almost all legal rights from 'war on terror' detainees at Guantanamo Bay and every other similar US facility on foreign or American soil................
If the amendment passes ... ... lawyers who act for Guantanamo prisoners will again be denied access, as they were for more than two years after Camp X-Ray opened in 2002."

Poeple used to joke about 1984 and all that stuff, but I can see it coming now - all the preparation work has been done. I will probably moan about it occasionally, but I don't really care anymore. No one wants to stop it. I guess they've already done a job on me in that way.
