Documents confirm U.S. hid detainees from Red Cross

You're kidding right? You don't care that Obama is tacitly supporting a clear violation of the bill of rights? That Obama is providing big business with a get-out-of-jail-free card not just for past offenses, but forever in the future provided the president simply says "it's for our national security, trust me".

Frankly, that sounds like a Bush policy.

 

^if we weren't so pussified as a result of right wing fear-mongering then i'd agree. the future is looooooong, he's being politically expedient IMO. he is, after all, a politician.

 

That's quite possibly the lamest excuse I've ever heard for failing to uphold the constitution.

 

i don't like it either but he is going to do things that you and i disagree with, often. he is not gandhi, no messiah, he is a flawed human being like the rest of us. he's trying to beat old silly cracker's brains in and he's taking no chances.

 

I'm fine with him doing things I disagree with, but I am NOT fine with him doing things that run counter to his sworn oath to defend the constitution. F that.

 

i get it rhad, your not gonna be able to exercise your right to vote. sorry about that, for real.

 

There are some things I am not capable of compromising. Your condolences are appreciated.

 

I've been saying that for quite awhile.
