Political Bullshit

In a stunning revelation, FBI Director Robert Mueller claims the FBI has misused the Patriot Act to collect information on American citizens. This is exactly why we need an uncompromised system of checks and balances, regardless of the circumstances. The Patriot Act, the Military Commissions Act and a host of other laws sought and passed by the Bush Administration have blatantly disregarded this important system for “our protection”. Yea, right!! If you believe that nonsense I've got a bridge to sell you.

I disagree completely with people who want to limit our society for our “protection” because the potential for abuse is too great. Our government simple cannot control itself when the rights of people are disregarded. I cannot understand how so many people can support the aforementioned laws. There too many ignorant people who have blind faith in false prophets and other nonsense. Stop making this issue about politics and start making it about human rights.

Within Bush’s presidency we have sanctioned torturing, allowed unmonitored snooping into the private sector, imprisoned people indefinitely thus suspending habeas corpus, and created laws in direct conflict with one of the most important documents every written by man (the Constitution). Why has the Bush Administration and their supporters shredded the Bill of Rights like a piece of junk mail, while at the same time put so much effort into an Iraqi Constitution? I will never figure this out.

I’m sure we’ll hear more bullshit from the Right about how the liberal media is causing trouble again. I have news for you fundamentalist assholes. Just because someone reports on issues like this, does not make them liberal.

Why can’t we stop what is happening to our country?
