Merkley said no. I'll have to re-evaluate my boy there. Hmm?
ReplyDeleteI'LL TELL YOU ALL RIGHT NOW SOMETHING YOU NEED TO KNOW. THERE ARE A SUBSTANTIAL NUMBER OF U.S. SERVICE MEMBERS WHO WILL NOT FOLLOW ORDERS TO OPPRESS THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. PERIOD. AINT GOING TO HAPPEN. NOT ON OUR WATCH. There has been an underlying divide in the combat arms for a long time concerning the inevitable collision of executive orders as opposed to the written U.S. Constitution. Anyone not being prior military service need to consult an expert. They are everywhere. If not in your family(sorry),look in the phone book under Veterans of Foreign Wars or American Legion. Experts are standing by for your call....
ReplyDeleteSlow down a little folks, at first I too was ready to go run for the bunker. Upon further reading of bill especially section 1043 the "Targets" of this bill are specifically AQ, Taliban, and groups associated with them or aiding them. Thats not to say that this may not be more grease for the slppery slope we're on as a country. Just somemore info. I also am not saying I approve of it or otherwise. I'm no fan of the "Patriot" act either just wanted to point this out. I love my country, but fear my government NOW more than ever. Thanks. Wirecutter love the site keep fighting the good fight.
ReplyDeleteThe thing is, it doesn't specifically limit it to the groups you mentioned.
ReplyDeletehmm looks like im going to have some very nasty letter to write considering both of my home states (michigan) reps voted this in may the gods have mercy on them in the next election
ReplyDeleteweird... Old reliable Harkin voting against something that could screw American citizens out of their rights
ReplyDelete'course I did get some spam email from the Amish last week...
maybe next the sun will come up in the west
