An attack

Not a problem, and your point doesn't go unnoted.

Thanks ww - Here's my problem with your statement. Like you say, he hasn't taken any rights away but when you say something like that, the conspiracy theorists on here, and there are many, take it and run. The statement has no basis. Maybe there was frustration that caused the statement but the next thing you know, the discussion devolves.

I'm not on here as often as others. I do read the comments and find some are not worth commenting, especially when I see the name calling.

Again thanks for coming back and answering my question.

To further explain my point, I'm not a supporter of the Patriot Act and other such legislation that infringes on someone's personal privacy. Though I do understand its purpose. I'm not against it because I feel I have something to hide, I'm against it because I feel that we're almost being kept 'prisoners in our own home', figuratively speaking.

Enigma - Very valid points; I appreciate the logic.

"ww - specifically, what rights has President Obama taken away?"

Currently none as far as I can tell. I was referring to his desire to extend gun bans, infringe on the 2nd amendment.

Hi premier, Suskind is a Pulitzer Prize winning author.. I offer that as evidence as well as the admission found by googling 16 words.. as well as a document called the Downing st report.. perhaps most notable is the fact that we found no wmd's, did we? But, don't take my word for it.. read the book , it is only then that you can determine the veracity..

Premier it's already documented that Suskinds lied in the book.

Wow you took Fido's advice, cashed in your aluminum cans and bought a mirror. Now you know what it's like to purchase something without a government check. Congratulations.

Buff, I can write a book stating that the author wasn't there.

Anyone can write a book. Again who is sitting in prison for falsifying information.

Lazy the Liar "Unless of course you're talking about President Bush pretending to be smart"

Could be talking about the present pair of "Harvard grads" occupying the White House that are incapable of understanding a simple mortgage contract.

"Falsified intelligence to start two wars"

I disagree. Falsified intelligence was used to start the war in Iraq, not Afghanistan. Unless of course you're talking about President Bush pretending to be smart, in which case, I'll give that one to you.

"CHayes, we do not live in a democracy.

You know, we live in a representative republic."

We don't live in a "representative republic", because there's no such thing. We live in a republic, aka a representative democracy, aka a democratic republic (because our head of state is directly elected by the people rather than appointed by representatives parliamentary style.

Get over the fact that the word "democratic" can be used in any way to describe our govt, and grow up.

"Buff it was NOT falsified intelligence, it was faulty intelligence."

What they sent Colin Powell to do at the UN was not "faulty", it was falsification.

Hi premier, nice to hear from you again.. regarding your first comment directed toward me, I reccomend Suskinds The One Percent Doctrine, then I'd be glad to discuss the topic.. regarding your second comment, yep, I'm sure many on the right would call the presidential election a squeaker.. and the Baldwin over Thompson victory, also a squeaker.. ans Warren over Brown, also a close one.. and the Allen West contest was a close one too.. and on and on. Feel free to offer a rebuttal to this rebuttal, something conservatives are getting good at. Or perhaps enough folks could get together and filibuster my comment.. time to eat, great ju jitsu class tonite..

And that "resounding victory"?

Really Buff, winning by 2.5% of the popular vote many would call that a squeaker not a resounding victory.

OH BOY!!!

Buff:"Falsified intelligence to start two wars.. "

Buff it was NOT falsified intelligence, it was faulty intelligence. There is a difference. This intelligence we got was not just ours but it also came from countries around the world.

Was this a global conspiracy?
