"What rights have you lost since we started killing jihadists?"

The same ones as you. Coincidental to the war, but lost just the same. Don't you remember how the whole gang in Washinton teamed up to make it illegal to talk about them before elections. The very reason for the first amendment was stripped from us like candy from a baby.

Some people think that it was great 'strategery'. Those of us who don't have the taste of shoe polish on our breath think that it's an abomination.

And if you don't think that a $400 Billion (and sure to grow larger) chunk taken out of our wallets doesn't restrict our rights and freedom, you have a strange view of freedom.

These things are not directly related to the war, but because so many are willing to cede my freedom for their 'safety', who knows what else will be taken from us.

Agreed, they have nothing to do with the war so evidently the answer to the question I posed to you was answered by constructing a strawman argument.

As far as the strawman goes, I agree, CFR is unconstitutional and profligate spending unrelated to defense is extra constitutuional.
