Which is more important, Senator Obama....

Written by: Bill Tower on Jul 4, 2008 12:05 PM EDT

...our Constitutional rights or your election? You promise CHANGE; but so far I see none! You are mired in the same old political games the two 'major' parties have played for years.

The American people are not entirely stupid! If the opposition tries to paint you as 'soft on terrorism', you'll just have to EXPLAIN to voters the Constitutional argument supporting a vote against this 'compromise' legislation.

You are a Constitutional lawyer after all. Surely you can argue the case for defeating this legislation. Do you not trust your ability to persuade people of the Truth? ...Or do you not trust the ability of 'We The People' to understand a well-articulated argument?

If you vote FOR this 'compromise' bill, your vote will belie your promises for change. Do the right thing...or you'll not get MY vote in November. I will not squander my vote on a "Lesser Evil". Leadership takes courage, not calculation! There are candidates who understand that fact.

I don't know to what extent the American people are stupid but I'll take it at your word that it's not entirely.  Having said that, can you point out the provision or provisions of the FISA Amendments Act that you believe is or are in violation of the Fourth Amendment?

Give up on that particular straw man Tom.

The FISA Amendments act is a get out of jail card for Bush, the Telecoms, and their Democratic accomplices.

I think what you need to consider is that I just responded to Bill's suggestion that Obama must explain the Constitutional argument supporting a vote against the compromise.  Why don't you explain to Bill that there is no Constitutional argument to oppose it and that raising the issue is a straw man?

- In one ear and out the other!

By Rose Mia on Jul 8, 2008 3:22 PM EDT

Somehow Obama came out with his theocracy plan long after the above information was posted on the DFA and Yahoo as well as Obama internet web sites!  Somebody please contact the Obama camp and get them to read this information for a change!

- It's not either, or!

By David Reed on Jul 9, 2008 2:51 PM EDT

It's all that's been asked!  Failure to do as Winiferd Nettro and Ann Hune as well as Rose Mia request means that John McCain will become President of the United States!!!

- Theocracy = intolerance!!!

By David Reed on Jul 10, 2008 3:13 PM EDT

We can see this message board in perspective if we consider last night's national news.  Iran now has medium range missles that can reach its neighbors including Israel.  Iran finding itself in the middle east war shortly is likely!  The world community will no doubt look to the United States to intervene after Iran uses its missles (or even before) by declaring war on Iran; especially if a treaty with another nation is involved!!  If we reflect on how the Arab, Muslim world became a terrorist threat to the world it can easily be recalled that when the Shah of Iran was deposed by the Muslims; he was replaced by an Iotollah (which is a leader in the Muslim clergy).  The Muslim holy book, the Koran; states that it is alright to bring war on unbelievers to bring them to Allah.  Any Muslim who reads the Koran will realize what their holy book has suggested!!!  When many came to the North America to colonize they were attempting to flee the Protestant, Christian theocracy of England which ironically landed them in culture, race and religious wars with the American Indians.  To this day, Catholics are terrorists in the United Kingdom (their terrorist group is called the Irish Republican Army, the IRA) because they came out on the short end of the theocracy stick! Christians killing Christians over sect differences just like the Muslims killing Muslims over sect differences in the middle east!!  Now U.S. Republicans are using Hitler's "popular prejudices of the masses" trick to get Americans to creep toward having a neo-Nazi, white, master race, Christian, Protestant theocracy which makes the rich, richer by making the poor, poorer!!!  Colin Powell and Condelezza Rice served the Republicans while they were unfolding this conspiracy (which will look like the spontaneous will of the people).  Unless a "figurative gun" is kept to Obama's head he will follow the path of least resistance just as Powell and Rice did and as Bill and Hillary Clinton did after the Monica Lewinski scandal. We must fight the Republican "culture of corruption" now or we will be forced to fight for it!!!!!!!!!!  For those of you who are minorities I regret to inform you that unlike the Civil War, there will be virtually no opposition to the Republicans.  This is the end of "cultural diversity" and the "free market place of ideas!"  For those of you who see the Mansions (costing millions of dollars) being built outside the major cities; censorship of the press will keep many from seeing when slaves are being taken willingly to serve the mega-rich!!  The national news recently revealed that a 15 year old girl is about to become a billionaire thanks to Disney Productions helping her make rock vidieos!!!  Other rich folks have 40 million dollar yachts with recreational submarines on board!  No wonder they don't want you to have any money!!!!!!!!!!
