It seems that certain of us think that protecting the 4th amendment is childish. Those people are wrong. This is not a trifle. This literally about who we are. The Constitution is what makes America American What makes each of us American. It is literally what we are made of. The U.S. of A isn't about our geographic area or our ethnicity or religion. It is about one simple thing our principles. The ones written down in that document. So make a ruckus get angry. Vote the right way in November but in no way should our concerns be downplayed. I'm pissed and i'm gonna let people know it. Call congress let 'em know you're pissed too. Call the senate. Call Barack let him know. Yeah I'll vote for him and I hope you will too. But this IS serious and to those who think it isn't...STHU!!!
Well the comments are clear they want me to expound.
The first thing I'd like to ask is if we can't get angry about this what can we get angry about? Really I'd love to know. If Obama came out against the first amendment would you feel the same? I put it to you readers which Amendment is it okay to dispense with for political expediency?
Your thoughts?
I should probably add here that I'm a committed Obama supporter went to a meeting this weekend...phonebanked in the primaries, given money etc... but dammit I'll not be told by someone on the rec list that b/c i'm angry about FISA that I'm childish.
