Our treasonous Congress just shot down an amendment introduced by Rep. Adam Smith (D-Washington) that would have ended the indefinite detention of Americans under the National Defense Authorization Act.
“That is an enormous amount of power to give the executive, to take someone and lock them up without due process,” Smith stated. “It is an enormous amount of power to grant the executive, and I believe places liberty and freedom at risk in this country.”
The fact that this country can lock someone up without due process should be a wake up call to everyone. This is NOT a free country any longer. Yes, you can go to the mall and buy whatever you want, but that isn’t freedom.
Freedom is your ability to live without threat from your own government that they might one day decide to lock you up indefinitely without your ability to do anything about it.
“Oh, but they wouldn’t do that,” the typical liberal sheep responds. And, they are correct. The sheep won’t be locked up like those who actually want to have rights, because they are already in a jail of their own making called “I submit to everything.”
What they don’t realize is that this jail will get smaller and smaller because those who run it have a never ending lust for control and possession. Those who run the jail are sociopaths who evil knows no bounds, but the sheep, being too timid, can’t confront this reality.
Our congress seems to agree that nazi like laws are suitable for our country – do they realize they are included in that
they got voted in and they CAN be voted out
if you feel it is all upthe the government then your the fool, theyc can’t fix every voting machine in every state and yes they can be voted out, and I trust God to put in the right people if asked

It won’t make a damn bit of difference if you continue to vote republiCON, or democRAT because both parties are corrupt. Nothing will really change until you realize that. Have you truly forgotten “The Patriot Act” that started this latest round of government stealing our freedom?
$#%&!@* you with your ignorant “liberal sheep” comment. I’m liberal and I’m as outraged as anyone about this $#%&!@*. I’m also a believer in the bill of rights….ALL of them. So perhaps you can stick to the issues rather than casting aspersions.
I am shocked by how many people here really believe that all we have to do is vote them out. Are you people really that naïve? Thousands of lives have been sacrificed, trillions of dollars have been stolen, and you actually believe that they care in the least what we think. Come on now, I mean really you honestly think that all we have to do is ask nicely and they are all going to just say “well the people have spoken, we all need to go home and give them their freedom back. Come on boys pack it up.” Bless your little hearts. THE REPUBLIC IS DOOMED ALREADY.

No. Evelyn L. Morley, these thieves, liars and corrupt bunch of idiots that we call Congress believe that they’re above the law and have no respect for the laws they pass.
OBAMA HAS NO RIGHT TO RUN OUR LIVES
