It's not enough for me. I still like Bush as a person, and I think he is an honest man. I think the war in Iraq was justified. However, what has happened to civil liberty and the Constitution under him has been the main reason I have started voting libertarian or other third party. The Bill of Rights is quite clear. I see no room for interpretation or exceptions. There is no footnote that says "unless we need to look for terrorists or catch drug dealers" after any of the Amendments. There are two legal ways to put aside the Bill of Rights. You can declare martial law, or you can amend the Constitution. Any federal gun law is unconstitutional. Any modification to the search and seizure laws is unconstitutional. Do you think that current situations should change our take on the Bill of Rights? Then pass an amendment. If not, you just can't do it. They are doing it anyway. I don't think it's right.

You have stated this clearly and succintly. It seems likely others might read your comments here and seriously reflect on them. Therefore, you must only be interested in getting high and molesting dead children.

My God! I was channeling Roscoe! Sorry about that.
