His power is limited by the Constitution so long as we insist he abide by it.


You may have a point, though, that the Constitution has been so trampled on by now that it is not protection at all.  If that is so, then we're really screwed.





Most American men are OK with our military torturing prisoners?  I don't think so, not if they stop to think about the ramifications of such a departure from American values. 




 


I know you think I'm a flaming liberal since I don't go along with all of the Obamabashing, and since I thought (and still think) that Bush was worse by far than Obama, but that just isn't my philosophy at all.  I'd shut down about half of the federal government if I could, the half that was never authorized by the Constitution.  I' start with the Department of Education.


Here is my philosophy, posted on my first thread on this forum.  I see you already read it and responded.




If we approach it that way, maybe not. How about, we're out to get the **&&!!s who are ruining your country.  Are you willing to help us?  We'll never mention your name to the authorities"

I would be too, probably just as irritated as I am with the big spender in office now, and the one who he replaced.  I think there are some positives about Obama, though, that we wouldn't have had with McCain.




The first part doesn't surprise me at all, but just who do you think the real conservative is who might actually have a shot in '12?





Obama is no more a Commie than he is a terrorist or the AntiChrist.  That's just nonsense.
