Oh, I think that people like John F'n Kerry, Maxine Waters and Hillary Clinton are very high on the communist scale, and that's just to name a few. The courts are populated with them as well, as is the media, the indoctrination education system and even a lot of private (for now) businesses that like the idea of being able to snoop indiscrimately into the private lives of their clientele.

Are you freaking blind, or just stupid?

" What guns? Nobody around here owns any guns..."

We sure don't!

But with one knife, I can get a couple of guns. (prolly from the local constable)

From there the skies the limit! ;)

Even the Founders realized that rights may need to be curtailed during times of invasion or rebellion - and al Qaeda is doing their best to invade us and attack us.

Then declare war. Or declare an emergency.

Otherwise the government should stay inside the lines, and not be surprised when their fingers get chopped off for going where they do not belong.

In our post-9/11 world, government officials have effectively used terror and fear to subdue any public resistance to legislation like the Patriot Act, which embodies the heavy-handed empowering of government intrusion into our lives.

As always, the author fails to mention one instance of abuse under the Patriot Act. He doesn't understand it. Nor does he seem to have a better idea for how to protect us from terrorists.

"What I'm seeing is a lot of panic over nothing. If you read the actual decision you'd see that all this ruling did was uphold a law in Nevada that states that it is unlawful to withold your name if asked by a police officer in the process of conducting an investigation. It does NOT give police officers the right to randomly and routinely ask people their name then arrest them if they don't comply."

Hey, come on!

How the heck is paronoia going to strike deep, iffin you give away legit info?

You have still failed to show how I have gone off topic or mentioned drugs in this thread. I only discussed current and recent Libertarians cases before the USSC and the trend. That is the gut issue of this thread.

So are you perfectly comfortable with a potential President Hillary exercising the powers the government has currently taken for itself?

Please post my post that you responded to and your response together so that everyone can see how your response bears no relationship to what I posted.

The above is self explanatory. Maybe you should explain what exactly you will do when someone less trustworthy than George W. Bush is running a government that knows no constitutional bounds to law enforcement actions.

"Enough" for these guys will mean at least 60 Libertarian Senators."

Get me 75 and I'll guarantee you the Federal Budget shrinks in half over the next ten years, and our taxes along with it.

Thank you.

Congress authorized the action against Iraq.

The topic here is the WAR ON TERROR, not Iraq.

In neither case was there a declaration. If there was, it would be clear what could and could not be done at home. And the people of the country would demand after a time to know objectives and time tables to know when the war was over. It wouldn't have as much chance of being open ended. Then people could decide if the suspension of certain rights was appropriate or not and for how long. A free society demands it.

Congress approved the action, and that's what matters.

As explained above, it is important and not all that matters. At least to this American.

If you want to debate specifics on legislative actions, fine.

"Know your Customer" is one example. The liberals tried for years before 911 to get this intrusive government power, we thwarted them everytime. Now, we surrendered and many even embrace it. It will be used for all kinds purposes that have nothing whatsoever to do with the WOT.

[BureaucratusMaximus]

60 Republican Senators. That's when "enough will be enough."

"Enough" for these guys will mean at least 60 Libertarian Senators.

Jesus H Christ...you have a bad case of ad hominem today.

What the hell is it man? Did your last relationship end up in you being dumped for a libertarian? Give it a rest.

Didn't need to. The terrorists declared war on us way back in 1993.

That still does not enable our government to suspend part or all of the Constitution. We must declare war and/or a state of emergency to do that.

Or, perhaps, we are already under a state of emergency that is being abused to selectively edit the Constitution.

An un-free dishonest nation isn't worth defending.

Not likely. If you were given 75 Libertarian senators, none would be elected to a second term.

Another day and another socialist 9th CC ruling overturned. Seems to be a trend forming. Two for Two last week. Doesn't look good for the medical marijuana scam case coming forward.
