TOTAL INFORMATION ANALYSIS

Friday, September 12, 2003

The Antiterrorism Tools Enhancement Act of 2003 was introduced in the House on September 9, a day before President Bush, in a bit of Orwellian theater called for tools to fight terror and named administrative subpoenas as one of these powers. The "Antiterrorism Tools" bill would grant this power. Although it goes about amending the US Code in a different way, this is the same provision as Section 303 of the latest draft of the VICTORY Act exclusively published by TOTAL INFORMATION ANALYSIS.

The other police-state measure in this realtively short bill provides for judge-shopping for "terrorism" search warrants. The VICTORY Act featured judge-shopping for wiretaps.

The bill was introduced by Rep. Tom Feeny (R-Fla.), who was Jeb Bush's running mate in his first race for governor in 1994 and became the Florida State House Speaker in the middle of the 2000 election saga.
