I'll tell you in 1 word why I won't vote for Hillary

[True Blue Door]

125. You are just making shit up.

What you're saying is just parroting hysterical blog coverage, not a reflection of actual policies and events.

Either quote the Executive Order establishing a "permanent war footing," or retract that claim.

Cite any evidence whatsoever that this President ordered a "coverup" of Bush's torture, or retract the claim. I suppose he released the Torture Memos early in his administration as some sort of fiendish ploy to confuse us all. But we run into such doublethink constantly whenever we entertain such claims as yours.

Quote the President where he ever - EVER - excuses torture, or retract the claim.

As for the NSA, he's the first President in the agency's 62-year history to impose explicit limits on its surveillance activities. Which, I'm sure, he once again did in order to do the exact opposite. Such is the logic of people like you.

But I suppose in your media-driven reality, the fact that Edward Snowden picked this administration to release his information during, and the President hasn't single-handedly attempted to demolish the American national security system against the opposition of Congress and the indifference of the people, that makes Obama some sort of totem of the surveillance state.

Go back to middle school civics and learn what a government is.
