Not realy, no. I forgot about this thread for a couple days, so.
The rights we enjoy, regardless of it being a "war" or peace. Shall not be suspended on the Citizen Populace. That is just common sense.
If I have to sacrifice the bill of rights or any other right of the Constitution, because of Police Actions than a President can create wars to centralize more power...
Oh wait, Did I just hit the target here.
The Patriot Act centralizes far too much power in Bush's Police Department. They have targeted State Employees for having Anti-War decor on there Trucks in ALaska. Blatant attack on the 1st Amendment.
The DHS contacted a Child about some Anti-Bush/anti-Republican Political project for Social Studies. Another attack on dissent and oppossition to Federal Polices.
You can dig for a couple hours and find out the Patriot Act is loosely worded to give the President and his Cronies in DHS ultimate authority in who is an enemy of the State.
Something I do not trust Government to have. I do not trust Government. Smitty, you brainwashed idiot Marine. You have no clue.
I would personally prefer it if the Presidency was put in it's place and the Checks and balances we used to have where reinstated. Im not gonna put much faith in a president or a Government that goes to war for OIL and Nation Building, while dismantling the way Government works at home and turns the Presidency into a sudo-dictator.
