I am an American expat living in Germany. It's a far away land on the other side of the ocean. It's interesting and often weird here. If you read this and want to comment then email me at blog(the at symbol)chillmost.com. If you find any spelling or grammar mistakes, you can keep them.

Wired News: Bush Grabs New Power for FBI: "While the nation was distracted last month by images of Saddam Hussein's spider hole and dental exam, President George W. Bush quietly signed into law a new bill that gives the FBI increased surveillance powers and dramatically expands the reach of the USA Patriot Act."

I'm afraid that if I ever move back to America, it is going to be a completely different place I remember leaving and I don't mean for the better. Why isn't there an outrage about this? Why isn't the system of checks and balances working?
