Sounds like the civil libertarians should be up in arms, and the left accuses President Bush of forming a police state?
Shake head. Mutter, mutter.

Starring Role in ABC Drama Leaves Pr. George's Fuming
Focus on Crime Called Unfair and Racist
ABC's prime-time drama "Commander in Chief," starring Geena Davis as the president, ignited an explosion of anger in Prince George's County yesterday as community leaders denounced an episode as offensive and racist for portraying the county as crime-ridden and in need of a federal takeover.
In the episode that aired Thursday night, called "Ties That Bind," Davis's character, Mackenzie Allen, watches a segment on the local news about civil unrest in Prince George's during a protest over the high homicide rate and a lack of police protection. She then goes to the Prince George's city of Hyattsville and gets out of her car in front of a restaurant advertising sweet potato pie, pork chops and chitlins.
After listening to people talk about slain loved ones and a lack of police, Allen sends 40 U.S. marshals into the county to quell the crime.
The folks over at NRO noticed a mention on the show. With scintillating dialog such as this, it's no wonder this show has gone down the tubes!
'CINC' MENTIONS NATIONAL REVIEW
President Geena: How can The Wall Street Journal call me a ''bleeding heart liberal'' on the same day the National Review calls me an ''ultraconservative''?
Chief of Staff: That's the dilemma of the independent. The press only sees black and white in the political spectrum.
Attorney General: Well, here's a keeper. The bloggers are calling us ''fascists in jackboots.''
President Geena: I always wondered how I'd look in a pair of those.
