Classic arguments have thier place. When someone makes that argument it means (or at least implies) that the accused doesnt mind the problem when his side is in power or in fact may even want the problem to exist.Classic argument, "you never complained when your guy was doing it, why are you complaining now that our guy is doing it". Never ending cycle.
Jindal is obviously guilty of this and is not to be trusted to actually fix it. Jindal, Perry and thier ilk will grandstand, moan, and make a big show that the president is doing nothing while avoiding giving actual support to fixing the problem until a republican assumes office once again. Upon which they will forget the problem even existed until the next time the republicans lose POTUS.
He is poison to the cause you are apparantly supporting and everything he says has been said by many others more honest in thier intent. I assume you would understand why I would be skeptical of your own integrity when it appears it took his words to draw you to pushing this agenda.
Well of course you were caught by surprise: most of the congressmen didnt read it when they signed it! And when they did, the republicans still didn't give a shit until after Obama came into office. That a good portion of the democrats dont give a shit about it now just adds to my disillusionment with the entire political system.Most of us were caught by surprise that the government believes the Patriot act gave them authority to have secret laws and warrant-less mass surveillance of US citizens. One of the major proponents of the law says that those permissions were never and could never have been granted under the protections enshrined in the Bill of Rights, and most certainly weren't implied under the bill that was passed.
