Back when George Bush was President Democrats were upset because terrorists captured on the battlefield were not being read Miranda rights, and were being incarcerated at Gitmo. Now that Obama is in the White House Democrats want unelected officials to be able to imprison their political opponents. That would be people who oppose official government (that is, Democrat) positions on gun control, abortion, states rights or gay marriage. Democrats want to be able to designate these people as domestic terrorists, and lock them up. Thug Democrat Representative Alcee Hastings thought this up. This is illustrates that criticism of Bush's policies was physcological projection where the Democrats accused the Republicans of doing what they would do if and when they were in power. Democrats would like to label as a "hate crime" such things as support for states rights, opposition to gun control, opposition to abortion, and opposition to same sex marriages.
