screw the recall. It is time for all of the states to succeed from the union.

Ya know... I can not really argue a case against such a thing. I can honestly say that if my State suggested secession, I would support it 100%.

At some point something has just got to give.

They should vote for Newt.
Lock up the Judges too immediately if they decide contra to the national norm.
There must be a lot of guilty people in the state.
Wonder why all the rest are so blase.

I hope the people start recalling Sen John McCain too.
After all he voted for the NDAA.

He has already signed it. Here is a link from Politico.

Obama Signs NDAA

Now please remember, he said he would veto the bill, then he signed it. What was his response to the change of heart?

"Despite my strong objection to these provisions, which my Administration has consistently opposed, I have signed this Act because of the importance of authorizing appropriations for, among other things, our military activities in 2011.

"Nevertheless, my Administration will work with the Congress to seek repeal of these restrictions, will seek to mitigate their effects, and will oppose any attempt to extend or expand them in the future."

So do you believe him? I sure don't.

According to the comments on that article, that's last years NDAA, not the 2012 version.

Look's like he hasn't signed it yet.

Odd.. perhaps I clicked the wrong link in my search, or I did not notice the date. I did however find another source saying Obama did sign the NDAA into law on Dec 23, 2011 for the fiscal year of 2012.

Obama signs NDAA

There are also plenty of links I came across that say he has not signed it yet. So at this point I am a bit confused.

Exactly what I was thinking. Say, a duly elected official (like the president) could use his new power to
round up as many treasonous traitors to the constitution as he could find. The executive branch has been
gathering excessive power to itself for quite some time now. Might as well use this "king-like" power
for some good instead of evil.

Only thing is, I just can't side with indefinite detention without some sort of a fair trial. But that is my
weakness, I am not as evil as most of our government has become.

I'm sorry, I don't understand. What crime should they be arrested for? And "really screwing up" isn't a crime. (Thankfully, or I'd be looking at 25 to life.)

That's political doublespeak for I actually support this but I'm a coward and don't want to take the blame. I do think the Democrats are realizing they have been taken over by the same Progressives who have infested the Right also. They are everywhere and their goal is the elimination of our Constitution by making it irrelevant through the Courts.

Obama's agenda is more government, more government control and more government intrusions into everyone's lives.

Truly odd that article came from the Daily Koss? The Daily Koss is probably the most Progressive, most anti-Constitution site on the entire Internet. The games we play, eh?

As to Obama he's made no secret he thinks the Constitution should be scrapped. Sadly nobody pays attention.

SSDD - This passed easily, so the Montana Recall will never happen. It does send a message though.

It must be a tough time for Partisan Democrats who are realizing they don't like their own President. Why they did not run another candidate against him boggles the mind. Carter all over again.

I do agree with you, redhorse, on the issues that came up in '09, but I feel differently about this one. Here in Butte, I've heard people talking about this as soon as the provisions of the NDAA became public knowledge.

I just posted the link a few minutes ago for the online petition, and I truly hope that we are just the beginning of things here.
