Not a threat to America? Really? That's interesting. Seems like "death to America" is the terrorists war-cry.

What I call a Keyboard Kommando (with Action Avatars!) is somebody who is just all manly and aggressive and testosterone-fueled as long as their martial art is the keyboard in front of them.

Pajamahadeen? I have that word on loan...it's the variety of Keyboard Kommando (with Action Avatars!) that never even bothers to get dressed before they do battle with the Godless Liberal. They generally live in their parent's basement.

And I'm sure you have a great reason to bring my mother into this...aside from the fact that she had her fill of the Right Wing in Nazi Germany. Nice call.

All are created equal in America.The Constitution is for Americans.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
Do you agree or disagree with the statement made by former Attorney General Gonzales in January 2007 that nothing in the Constitution confers an affirmative right to habeas corpus, separate from any statutory habeas rights Congress might grant or take away?
Ron Paul
I strongly disagree with him because I think it was absurd. If we can’t deny habeas corpus it infers that you have habeas corpus. So I would strongly disagree with his whole interpretation of habeas corpus. ... [As for whether that extends to non US citizens in US custody overseas]. I think that might depend upon the circumstances of declared war, and what the circumstances might be. ... [In the case of Guantanamo detainees,] I would think then that we should, under those circumstances, follow the principles of habeas corpus.

The Miranda act only informs you of your right not to incriminate yourself by saying ANYTHING,which is a really good idea when you are in contact with the most corrupt system of abuse and control in the entire world....
A few seconds of waterboarding,and most of you wimps would be waiving your right to remain silent anyway.

Given the fact that we've wrongfully accused innocent people of being terrorists, and after all this Guantanamo nonsense... I'm going to go ahead as token liberal to say- this is a good idea.

Once the terrorists start wearing Uniforms, then they can have there rights.
