"Doesn't the HSA also have a provision for arming airline pilots? I have to say, I like that...."
Yes, the Homeland Security Act arms pilots, and that's just one of the many reasons that the "pretend" conservatives (you know, the liberals who like to post on FR as if they are more conservative than Jesse Helms) hate it.
Another reason that the disruptors hate the HSA is that it explicitly BANS the creation of a National ID Card, one of their prime goals.
So you'll see and hear lots of rubbish from the disruptors about the Homeland Security Act, but all that does is expose the fakers from the true conservatives.
"So you'll see and hear lots of rubbish from the disruptors about the Homeland Security Act, but all that does is expose the fakers from the true conservatives."
Are you saying everyone who thinks that the HSA has gone too far is a disrupter?
How arrogant of you.
May I suggest a little reading?
You might learn about the very fragile nature of freedom.

Let's see I voted for Jesse every election I could vote in, I agree with him on everything except this bill, and I'm not conservative enough for you? I even went along for a short while on the explanation of CFR

So you'll see and hear lots of rubbish from mindless 'bots who would sell everything they have and live in a box if the Republican party told them to. Nope, sorry, not here, not anymore. After this state elected the saddest possible replacement for the honorable Sen. Helms (considering her power grabbing past), and the administration's capitulation on practically anything conservative, all in the name of safety, I just don't see it anymore. The power should be returned to the people, not turned on them.
I support some Republicans still. Helms, Thurmond, Paul, and some from my state in the House. But I'm having a problem finding anyone in the Republican party that's able to answer a question about the far reaching effects of these bills after the 'war on terrorism'. So which is it? Are you naive enough to believe that this power will sunset like some were here in the past or are you naive enough to believe this 'war on terrorism' will go away. Either case you're mistaken. History has proven time and again, once the government starts one of these unconstitutional wars they never go away (War on Poverty, mid 60s, War on Illiteracy, 70s, War on Drugs, mid 80s, have I forgotten any that are still going on?). And history also proves that once the government tastes the power, it ends up within a few decades rearing its head twice as strong.
I imagine you're going to tell me now Republicans will be in office every day of my life, and as a Christian I won't have to worry about Democrats getting in office and turning this machine on religious conservatives. That's great, but who's going to protect us from Sec. Powell?!?
