(193 posts)You lavish praise on teabaggers as "small govt conservatives" even though they want govt in peoples bedrooms telling folks to bring every pregnancy to term and telling other folks who they can marry. Some small govt that is.
Then you berate Obama for using the power given to presidents, is it that only white presidents should use the patriot act?
And most absurdly you act as if a few gopers putting country first and siding with the president on narional security is somehow an indictment of Obama. But your siding with radical teabaggers is ok. Get a grip
Side with whoever you wish but dont pretend itts for altruistic liberal reasons. It clearly is not. Every phone call you or I or anyone else has ever made has generated a record somewhere or the phone companies wouldnt know how much to charge you.
You wanna scrap the patriot act? Fine i'm ok with that but you are asking too much to expect the president not to use the tools given him by congress. Whether your animus against Obama is driven by race by ideology ignorance or whatever, most americans dont share your hatred.
And if we are supposed to be upset that our soy agencies actually engage in espionage....griow up why dontcha
