Where's the outrage?

or at least acknowledgement of the really interesting stuff dubya passed this weekend?

Y'know, the thing where if you're actively working against the war, they can take all your money. And the other thing, where he seem to have declared he can not be held responsible for his actions by the legal system?

I could be reading these things entirely wrong, since I am not fluent in Political Legalese. I must be, because otherwise I would be hearing about this from mainstream TV news sources, right? Because this seems pretty big to me. Admittedly, I only had a chance to watch a small amount of TV news, mostly fox, but I expected to hear Something about it.

I must be misinterpreting it.
