Whenever Bush croaks the word "Freedom", you can be sure your rights are about to get trounced like Ashcroft in a popular election against a corpse. In his latest round of radical Republican hijinx, his administration has cooked up the "President's Freedom Commission on Mental Health" which ostensibly proposes that all American "consumers" be screened and scored for mental illness. Look for child consumers to be screened in schools. What this has to do with freedom isn't clear, other than the typical partisan linguistic hijacking that the administration has applied to the word since 9/11.

What's Bush policy without a little industry cronyism thrown in? Read InterventionMag's assessment of the program.
"The New Freedom Initiative proposes to screen every American, including you, for mental illness. To this end, the president established a New Freedom Commission on Mental Health, to study the nation’s mental health delivery service and make a report. It’s interesting to note that many on the staff appointed to the Commission have served on the advisory boards of some of the nation’s largest drug companies."
