--Benjamin Franklin
Just say’n ;-)
Wrong context.
so you have been on freepr since Feb of this year...and have no qualms about Obama’s destruction on a massive scale of our society...yet use this quote in relation to Bush?
TROLL lurking.
“Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.”
—Benjamin Franklin
++++++++++++++
Do you suppose they had jihadists capable of delivering dirty nukes back then? Just askin’...
I doubt Ben would apply that to our enemies. But a lefty would.
What liberty has anyone given up?
Benjamin Franklin wsnt dealing with people flying airplanes into buildings and killing 3,000 people.
--Benjamin Franklin
Nice quote, but who gave up any liberty? Explain....
i’m pretty sure thomas jefferson would have been gung ho about going after terrorists and would have done exactly what Bush did...
Your apparent insinuation these programs are an infringement on liberty is weak in the absence of any proof information gathered was used in any way other then to keep America free from terrorist activities.
This entire episode wherein this programs existence has been revealed while any specifics have been kept from us stinks of political maneuvering by a Party who is seeing it’s favor with the people being hammered almost on a daily basis. Not one official has claimed this program has done anything illegal and a few have said it was never even fully implemented.
It’s a smoke screen, or should I say ANOTHER smoke screen designed to deflect attention away from the taking down of America, piece by piece.
