Obama - George W Bush on steroids?

A couple of quotes from an interesting article in the Guardian:

"Obama did not reverse what Bush did, he went beyond it. Obama is just able to wrap it up in a better looking package. He is more liberal, more eloquent. He does not look like a cowboy," said James Bamford, journalist and author of numerous books about the NSA including 2008's The Shadow Factory.

 A clause was added to the National Defence Authorisation Act that had such a vague definition of "support of terrorism" that journalists and political activists went to court claiming it threatened them with indefinite detention for things like interviewing members of Hamas or WikiLeaks.

So...

Let's see...

I have donated money to WikiLeaks.   Does this mean those insane self-appointed Rulers Of The Universe, the Yanks, can now "rendition" me to some god-awful place and keep me locked up indefinitely, or torture me till I recant my assertion that Obama is an insane megalomaniac who's lost all touch with reality?
