I want the last 4 minutes of my life back.
Any chance that we could move this to the "too hot to handle" fourms?

After 46 views, less Skid and yourself, I don't see anyone else who thought it was funny.

I thought it was funny, well made, took shots at both sides, and may just may not appeal to your thinking.
The funny part was clouded by the seriousness and truth to what was being said. It was intended to have pain mixed with the humor, that is what made it effective.

Hitler, Chavez, Stalin, Zalaya, Guevara, Castro, others, and Obama are all of similar mind: they want to rule the lives of others. The Constitution, what Obama refers to a Negative Rights, was designed to stop people from being such rulers. I say Obama and the Congress are doing what they can to ignore it. Hitler would view Obama as a rival, just as Hitler viewed Stalin as a rival. Castro, Chavez, and Zelaya all get along because they are content to rule their own roost. They just want to spread the 'revolution' so that their power bases are not threatened.
Poor Honduras, being shoved off the cliff because they are sticking to their Constitution. Obama should be ashamed, but he is not. His contempt for the constitutional rights of the Hondurans is clearly seen just as his contempt for our Constitution is clearly seen by his desire to expand government's intrusion into our lives. Certainly it is not the quartering of soldiers in homes, but it is equally invasive and far more subversive to force the population to depend on the government for their very lives.

GW was fighting a war did not stomp nearly as hard on the Constitution as FDR did in WW2 and the steps he took were really limited to foreign activities and those with things to hide, so it did not affect me or my family.
You can't compare GW trying to stop terrorists from hurting America and Americans to Obama trying to rule American's daily lives.

The suspention of habius Corpus which the last pres to do that was Lincoln during a civil war which was worse than FDR and lets see illegal wire tapping on americans as only a few unnecesary during war time so I think he did worse. The party took advantage of a terrorist attack to stomp the constitution or why is GW the only pres in history to make the North American Command Group which was seen as unnecesary to have since all our bases are here! The power Obama has and that is seems all the fuss is about is a direct result of GW and Cheney taking advantage of a situation and now the other party has this power which none of them should of had and now all I hear are complaints that is why I say both parties are not to be trusted is all so lets open our eyes a little. If Obama were to reinstate Habius Corpus like he said he would my opion of him and his party might be different.

I'm still scratching my head over the previous post, what suspension of habius Corpus are you refering to? I never heard of that being done by the last administration. Are talking about the Enemy Combatants that aren't subject to the Geneva convention or Habius Corpus? I'd be curious to see links to your references.
How many cases of "illegal" wire tapping against average citizens were there? I'd like to see that stat as well. If muhamand is making overseas calls to Osama I have no problem with the Govt listening in. It's not like they found 500 FBI files of average citizens lost in white house, opps that was the Clinton administration http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_House_FBI_files_controversy

Keep it real but I will be the first to point out the deceptions of both sides not just the side I mostly disagree with Clinton did alot to hurt this countries manufacturing base and Bush ran with it after that. Every administration in the last 30 yrs has taken a little of our freedoms away and now we are seeing the results of this take over by Dems and Reps alike we are pawns like you said and if this continues we shall all be sorry is all I am saying and habius corpus did not just cover enemy combatants it pertained to all of us and now it is still suspended which is wrong.

They have a justice system in place in Iraq. I'm not suggesting that we treat our previous president like they treated theirs, but Saddam did feel justice as the rope tightened.
I have not heard of any public figure that says the health care system here should be left alone btw. It's just that W had a different agenda.
Question: Did the Nazi's deserve to have trials for their war crimes at Nuremberg?

Gratz on the Seahawk win!
Ok so W suspends habius Corpus against terrorist, I thought you meant US citizens. The enemy combatants could be defined as Mercenaries and they shot those with out trial in WW2. Why anyone cares about the rights of people that would strap a bomb on to a kid and have him detonate it in a crowd of shoppers in a market is beyond me. The fundamental difference between the two camps has been one side wants to charge the terrorist as criminals, the other side wants to detain or kill them.
Under Article 47 of Protocol I (Additional to the Geneva Conventions of 12 August 1949, and relating to the Protection of Victims of International Armed Conflicts) it is stated in the first sentence "A mercenary shall not have the right to be a combatant or a prisoner of war."
On 4 December 1989 the United Nations passed resolution 44/34 the International Convention against the Recruitment, Use, Financing and Training of Mercenaries. It entered into force on 20 October 2001 and is usually known as the UN Mercenary Convention[19]. Article 2 makes it an offence to employ a mercenary and Article 3.1 states that "A mercenary, as defined in article 1 of the present Convention, who participates directly in hostilities or in a concerted act of violence, as the case may be, commits an offence for the purposes of the Convention."[20]

Apples and Oranges my friends.
You can't compare Uniformed soldiers who fought for a sovereign nation vs cowards who disguise themselves as citizens and fight for an ideology. The right thing to do would have been to shoot them in first place and save the tax payers some money. sounds harsh I know but what are you supposed to do with people that entice others to strap bombs on to themselves and detonate them in market?

Personally, I think GW was a RINO.
He never used his Veto Pen except once and that was a few years ago. He pretty much passed whatever congress - mostly Democrat controlled since 2002 sent to him so saying he was not great doesn't ruffle my feathers. He was pro-amnesty, no matter what he wanted to call it. He signed the idiotic McCain-Feingold bill which limits free speech.
Now, on the other hand, the wire tapping was narrowly defined on paper and permitted by the Democrats in control while he wanted to keep it going (cause you don't hear them complaining about it now that O has control over it). Sure, they made a good show about opposing it, but knew they would have the power passed to them once he left and if they gained control of the House.
The only positive thing he did was call spades a spade after 9/11. Then he failed to follow through on taking out the axis of evil.
