Do not separate text from historical background. If you do, you will have perverted and subverted the Constitution, which can only end in a distorted, bastardized form of illegitimate government.


I believe there are more instances of the abridgement of freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments by those in power than by violent and sudden usurpations.


It will be of little avail to the people that the laws are made by men of their own choice if the laws be so voluminous that they cannot be read, or so incoherent that they cannot be understood.


The Constitution preserves the advantage of being armed which Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation where the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms.

Brother NSA knows best

That NSA domestic phone records database is really irritating. It's amazing what two faced liars the democrats are... they knew about this program before it was implemented and are only now complaining, after it became public. They want this power just as much as the fake republicans, but won't admit it at the present time because it's useful to damage El Presidente Bush.

What bothers me most is how sneakiness of this ramp-up of gov power. If they can get the public to swallow this, we're screwed. In a few years, when the Islamic bastards start blowing up over here, they'll claim "for national security", and add a single BLOB field to a single table in that database, which will then save the contents of every phone conversation. Easy as pie. This database is a total setup for the future, so that everyone can be more easily monitored and controlled.

Is the quote from Bush a lie?
"We're not mining or trolling through the personal lives of millions of innocent Americans."

If you said no, then you win the Clintonion prize of Public Deception. According to Bush, the definition of "phone records" does not match up with the definition of "personal lives". Thus, he has simultaneously NOT lied, and successfully fooled the greater part of the population.
