POPSObama Vows to Continue Bush's Assault on the Constitution! I am speechless. I was going to vote for Obama until I learned this. I simply can not vote for anyone who sells out our constitutional rights. I feel a little crushed right now (only a little, I am primarily an anarchist). I just wanted an eloquent, seemingly humanist, president for a change. but now I see my old belief still holds true; Obama is just another head of the same beast, all be it more literate and better dressed. This is beyond the pale! I guess I needed this to wake me from my romanticized stupor. I was swayed by his charisma but now see his true colors and they are not red, white and blue. The linked article summed it up best: "as a Constitutional Law Professor, he knows full well what a radical perversion of our Constitution this bill is, and yet he's supporting it anyway. Anyone who sugarcoats or justifies that is doing a real disservice to their claimed political values and to the truth. "

POPSOne justice away from tyranny I'm really sick and tired of the people who see this as giving the enemy rights; this protection of constitutional standards. So many people are willing to give up their own freedoms and rights under the fear that international bogymen are going to pillage their women and rape their lands ;P I see people who believe this to be the real, tangible enemy. I can point to a Bush apologist and say "That man right there, he wants to erode my constitution. He is therefore my enemy."
