we're becoming the Soviet Union

First it was describing the defense of our nation as "protecting the homeland", which has always sounded skeevy to me.

Now we're describing anyone who opposes us as "criminals".

What's next, commissars in the military units to ensure doctrinal purity (I guess we have Public Affairs Officers already...) Thought police? Gulags? (I guess we just keep ours in Cuba.)

This country needs a change in direction, and it needs it soon.
