There is yet another, even greater threat here IMHO.
This action like others in the past (the recent invasion of IRAQ, the Gulf of Tokin incident) are signs that we may be creating an Efficient Government.
There is no greater threat to civil liberties than an efficient government.

who'd have thunk that bureaucracy was REALLY what's protecting our civil liberties?
Fortunately, the Founding Fathers. They worked hard to design an Inefficient Government and tried in everyway to make it as inefficient as possible. And they did a good job.
