He will not rest until Obama invades, rebuilds and forces democracy on Iran, Syria and Libya. Yes, because we know better than they what really is a just system of governance.
Why, just look at how free of corruption we are:
- It's not like police murdering people are routinely given paid vacations while evidence suddenly disappears.
- It's not like the FBI, BATFE, ICE, and DEA would enable violence in Mexico by enabling gunrunning.
- It's not like the NSA would spy on millions of communications without probable cause, much less a warrant.
- It's not like the FBI would kill someone's wife and then taunt him with her death.
- It's not like the ATF would murder dozens of innocents, and then destroy evidence while accusing Koresh of pedophilia/child-abuse/polygamy -- as if the accusations invalidated their need to follow the law.
- It's not like we have a Supreme Court that spouts off nonsense as rulings like:
- Wickard, where intrastate commerce falls under interstate regulatory powers.
- Raich, where non-commerce falls under interstate/intrastate regulatory powers.
- Schenick, where they said that Congress could regulate speech/print, despite the first amendment.
- Roe v. Wade, where they made a right to privacy [between a doctor and patient]… which doesn't apparently apply to the NSA… or even doctors and patients (ACA).
- ACA, where everything's A-ok if we call it a tax.
- Hollingsworth (prop 8), where they said that CA's own Supreme Court could not certify 'standing'.
- King, where the supreme court acknowledges the 4th amendment's requirement for a warrant... and then ignores it.
The Fourth Amendment expressly imposes two requirements: All searches and seizures must be reasonable; and a warrant may not be issued unless probable cause is properly established and the scope of the authorized search is set out with particularity. […] The proper test follows from the principle that permits warrantless searches: warrantless searches are allowed when the circumstances make it reasonable, within the meaning of the Fourth Amendment , to dispense with the warrant requirement.
- It's not like we have a president who can virtually ignore the law with impunity.
- It's not like we have a supreme court that can rewrite the law with impunity.
- It's not like we have a legislature that is so averse to responsibility that it routinely blames the executive branch for the actions carried out by departments created/authorized/funded by that very legislature.
- It's not like we have a legislature that writes laws wherein they exclude themselves.
- It's not like the political elite will punish you for disagreeing with them politically.
That's just crazy talk.
He is keeping us safe.
Screw that; seriously:
Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

Benjamin Franklin became the most famous American of his time. He helped found a new nation and defined the American character. Writer, inventor, diplomat, businessman, musician, scientist, humorist, civic leader, international celebrity . . . genius!

“Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.” Benjamin Franklin “ You can only post that because Obama and McCain are keeping us safe, just like GWB and Hillary did.
So what if you lost a few freedoms? No-one has flown a airliner into your building or house. They take the fight to the terrorists so we don't have to fight here.
Civil liberties are for terrorists. If you are not a terrorist then you are safe without them.
Give John McCain a salute as Sarah told you to do, while you still can. DADADA
