Homeland thought security

A very disturbing story emerged from Idaho last week. It paints a picture of the Homeland Security Department's role of keeping President Bush safe from political criticism rather than protecting us from terrorists.

A veteran who chose to put messages critical of the war with Iraq on his truck was tracked down by the Homeland Security Department and told he asked to remove his truck from the federal building parking lot where he is employed.

Really.

A man who served his country at a higher level than most would ever even think about is being told he doesn't have the complete right to free speech. Some speech is more equal than others.

Unless of course they asked the folks with "W" bumper stickers to move their cars too.

Now that we are all safe from bumper stickers ask yourself if this is what you want your security tax dollars spent on. Be honest conservatives. It will not always be your party in the White House, so look a little down the road before you answer that question.
