Bush and Obama Have Set Us Back 800 Years

This is an excellent article on how destructive the Bush and Obama administrations have been to liberty. Just as an example, here is a clear explanation of the NDAA:

he government’s indefinite detention policy – stripped of it’s spin – is literally insane, and based on circular reasoning. Stripped of p.r., this is the actual policy:

If you are an enemy combatant or a threat to national security, we will detain you indefinitely until the war is over.

It is a perpetual war, which will never be over

Neither you or your lawyers have a right to see the evidence against you, nor to face your accusers

But trust us, we know you are an enemy combatant and a threat to national security

We may torture you (and try to cover up the fact that you were tortured), because you are an enemy combatant, and so basic rights of a prisoner guaranteed by the Geneva Convention don’t apply to you

Since you admitted that you’re a bad guy (while trying to tell us whatever you think we want to hear to make the torture stop), it proves that we should hold you in indefinite detention


See how that works?

The Founding Fathers are rolling in their graves, as the separation of powers they fought and died for is being destroyed. We’ve gone from a nation of laws to a nation of powerful men making laws in se..., where Congressional leaders themselves aren’t even allowed to see the laws, or to learn about covert programs. A nation where Congressmen are threatened with martial law if they don’t approve radical programs.

Indeed, Bush and Obama have literally set the clock back 800 years … to before the signing of the Magna Carta.

America, love it or leave it!

I'll even pay your airfare, Comrade!
Hasn't effected "liberty" in even one instance you can reasonably cite to except in your overexcited imagination. The only case you repeatedly cite to is Anwar al-Awlaki who was a terrorist with connections to the 9/11 hijackers and who had repeatedly publicly stated his agreement and active support of killing Americans. He got droned, he deserved it and you can fuck off in his defense if you like. Tell me all about how he deserved to be the subject of an arrest warrant, probable cause and some FBI agents picking him up in the tribal mountains of Pakistan.

You're an idiot and your continued support of a terrorist who wanted to kill Americans, and who repeatedly and publicly stated those aims, is hard to understand. But, of course, this gives you an opportunity to disagree with President Obama....so, you can forget about any allegiance you might have to our country or its citizens and how we might prevent them from being killed by a shitbag like Al-Awaki. You can just squawk about how his rights were violated.

Fuck you, you're a moron.

BTLD, you are the most anti-American poster on this board. You are a statist-nationalist-jingoist. You want America to become a police state. You are a brainwashed buffoon unable to think critically, or recognize reality.

Timmy, you are right up there with BTLD. The President can kill, or indefinitely detain, anyone he wants, whenever he wants, and wherever he wants, and you are ok with that. Brainwashed buffoon, you are.

Timmy, do you remember that al Awaki's 16 year old American citizen son was also killed? Do you understand that this "war on terror" is undefinable, unwinnable, and perpetual, as well as unconstitutional? Do you think that "rights" only belong to people who agree with the government?

I support the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and liberty, and I'M full of shit? I think there should be some evidence before we go around killing people, including children, yet I'M full of shit? I think the President and Congress should actually OBEY THE LAW, yet I'M full of shit?

You know NOTHING about al Awaki and the other targets other than what the government has told you. That is why Americans have rights. We don't know the other side. We have also engaged in a pattern of killing people for what they might do some time in the future. Maybe. This is why we have due process, to prevent innocent people from being railroaded (or killed) by the government randomly.

Has Congress declared war? No.

Has an enemy been defined? No. Just terrorist, whoever the hell they are.

Has victory been defined? No. We will never know when we've won.

Are there quantified objectives? No. We'll just kill whoever we think the enemy is, also undefined, might be. If they are in a crowd of innocent people, including children, well, they must be the enemy, too.

And you are perfectly sane for supporting all of this, and I'm full of shit because I won't.

You're insane. That is the only explanation.

You're lying again, BTLD. Please provide a link showing Gillian McKeith is a Libertarian, and the other is not.

All you're saying is you got nothin', nothin' at all. As usual.

And I do love America, which is why I'm not leaving, and fighting to make her great and free once again.

800 years! You're a lying motherfucker! Bush maybe, but Obama will lead us to the promised land! Just wait and see! 800 years from now, some ECCIE turd will be hardening back to the glory years of King Barack I, when we Eliminated our enemies rather than let them victimize us.

such a dipshit. Why don't you find something else to whine about?

or just gargle some more man mustard, homofagnit!
Only response I 've ever seen from you that I respect. You're wrong and misguided as a result of your hatred for Obama but good for you for being a righteously misguided nut bag. And...yes. You are full of shit. Cheers.
