Though suspicious to us, on the right -— I seriously doubt this would be aimed at law-abiding folks. Scary for anyone that DARE question the regime... but questioning is within our first amendment rights. Threratening harm or acting out, is not.

Time’s Klein suggests that the actions of Palin and Beck come very close to “sedition”. Clearly, parts of the MSM would sit on their hands if certain of these people that they deem undesirable were to be spirited away!

McCain has lots of experience in taking away your First Amendment righst - it is called McCain-Feingold.

Yes but they don’t have to PROVE it in a court of law so you could rot away in jail for decades just on some bureaucrats whim.

Threatening harm or acting out as you call it, is NOT the definition of belligerent.

Guessing you haven't gotten Jan's DHS memos.

Given that this bill, and those who entertain it's intention to bring it to fruition, trashes totally the 5th and 6th amendments, what could possibly lead you to believe they'd respect exercise of the First, let alone the Second?

Anything which CAN be abused, will be abused. This is an Unconstitutional usurpation of power, amounting to the negation of habeas corpus. While that has been done before, we were engaged in the war we do not want to repeat, if possible.

The 'stroke of a pen, law of the land' set has no compunction about abusing power--they have already done so. I believe your faith is unfounded. The proposal says what it says, the potential for abuse is written in, and there are no safeguards there.

It is bad legislation, and imho, shows McCain to be unfit for office.
