Former FBI Director, J Edgar Hoover had a plan in the nineteen-fifties to arrest twelve thousand people in the US who were considered a threat to national security.
The papers, classified until, now also detail how Hoover pushed for the suspension of habeas corpus.
Tell The Truthiness ; We of course know that President Bush has taken on, pretty much all of Hoover's mantle, with warrant-less wiretapping, the optional Geneva Convention and the suspension of habeas corpus. Hoover would feel like what he was planning was unambitious compared to the current president.
Keith Olbermann's video reminds us of the extraordinary unconstitutional actions of this presidency.
