What is it with America?
Why don't our citizens understand that we OWN the country, and that we have a right to say how we want it run? Somehow the current CEO has us all jumping at our own shadows, scared to say "boo" because it may empower the evildoers. Well, what if the evildoers we are empowering are the ones running the country? Does nobody consider that?
The President has an obligation to protect, defend, and uphold the Constitution, so help him God. He keeps saying, however, that his number one priority is protecting the people, presumably at the expense of the Constitution (e.g. wiretapping without warrants, arresting enemy combatants without counsel, etc.). Somebody needs to tell him that without the Constitution, there is no "America" to protect - just another dictatorship that somebody may need to come liberate.
