Obama Considering "Preventive Detention" Plan For Suspected Terrorists

But it's ameriKa so it's just fine, right? So long as the constitution says so, right? Cause the constitution only apples to who the government says it does, right? Today brown skinned people from far away, tomorrow it'll be those right wing extremists who believe in the constitution.

Time to wake up people.

They'll make it official pretty soon.

Preventative roundup

and then had the nerve to utter it out loud, is enough to make me want to leave the country ASAP. That shows his character, his intent, his absolute disregard for human rights and the rule of law.

I equate this new article with warnings to the Jews and then their being forced to wear the yellow stars. They were told that they were targets while the machinery was building up against them. Likewise, we are being told.

That's my impression, very sorry if it sounds exaggerated, but I see the
American Gulag in the future.

Incarcerating people who cannot be tried.

Hmm. I guess it's ok when Obama does it.

because you know this is the welcome mat for the "domestic terrorists" as well...and we all know who they are. The only good to come of this is to see the left squirm and scramble as they try to rationalize this one. They may just be starting to get a good look at their messiah.

Ron Paul is my President.

Unreal.............

Obama is making even more expansive claims of executive power than Bush. As Bruce Fein puts it: "In principle, President Obama is maintaining that victims of constitutional wrongdoing by the U.S. government should be denied a remedy in order to prevent the American people and the world at large from learning of the lawlessness perpetrated in the name of national security and exacting political and legal accountability."

Obama, in other words, is committed to covering up the Bush regime’s crimes and to ensuring that his own regime can continue to operate in the same illegal and unconstitutional ways.

Obama can give a great speech without mangling the language. He can smile and make people believe his rhetoric. The world, or much of it, seems to be content with the soft words that now drape Dick Cheney’s policies in pursuit of executive supremacy and U.S. hegemony.

read the full article...great to send to "lefty" friends or sites!

...we can expect a lot more of this kind of thing in the future, as has been heralded by scores of patriots for many years.

How long will it be before we see mandatory national curfew, and armored personnel carriers patrolling the streets of Anytown, USA?

When, exactly, will it be YOUR turn to get chipped?

America has been on the road to tyranny since, at least, 1861, but our casual shuffle has morphed into a rocket ride! Hop on! Enjoy the view!
