Answer 1

no

Answer 2

The American constitution was only ever a propagandistic way if controlling the masses for the maximum upper class corporate gain. The democratic process was preempted by private profit way back in the early 19th century just a few decades after the United States was born. It is all codified in law and there is very little that the common person can do about it short of a full-scale revolution that results in the scrapping of the Constitution and a complete reenvisioning of this nation with an entirely different form of federal government. In short, yes I agree, and maybe our grandchildren's grandchildren will get the chance to fix it all in the future.

Answer 3

Fortunately, I have a funcitoning brain, meaning I don't believe he is either a dictator or a tyrant. You are throwing around words you don't even understand, overstating your case hysterically, as if the emotion outweighs logic or facts. Well, it doesn't.

This war is against a hidden enemy. They have no country. They have no government. They have no standing army or headquarters or capital or infrastructure. The only way we can find them is through intelligence - signal intelligence (phone taps and phone call record) and other intelligence (money trail).

The Supreme Court has ruled the money trail and call record tracing do not violate privacy, because you have already allowed this info to go to a 3rd party - so you have no expectation of privacy.

As for the phone taps, those are done on calls to/from foreign phone numbers that are suspected or identified terrorists. This is a legitimate power of the Presidency in time of war. No law has been violated.

As for whining about privacy, the biggest invasion of privacy is done by the IRS, who takes all your personal financial records, as well as stealing your money.

As for the enemy, because he is hidden in the rest of the population, the only way to find him is thru intelligence. Thanks to leftist leakers and the media, very important intelligence gathering operations have been ruined, undermining the government's ability to protect us.

Why that doesn't bother you is confusing. Unless you wish for more Americans to die.

Answer 4

Did you hit your head really hard?

Our government is spying on the phone conversations of the TERRORISTS, not you.

Our government is tracking the funds of TERRORISTS, not you. The government can't even access your ATM records.

Both of these activities have been performed by previous administrations, and neither one is unconstitutional. By the way, were you all pissed off when Clinton was reading Americans' e-mails through Project Echelon? Or are you just a Bush-hater cloaked in the Constitution?

Pay attention and gather some facts before you ramble. Here's the Cliff's Notes version regarding this war. Terrorists attacked us many times (First World Trade Center bombing, the attack on the USS Cole, the taking over of the Achille Lauro and killing of American Leon Klinghoffer, attacks on various embassies, 9/11). Although the Clinton administration never seemed to mind, the Bush administration decided to put an end to it.

We invaded Afghanistan because the Taliban regime was a key in the terrorist network. We invaded Iraq because Saddam had WMDs (or so his actions and words said) that he was willing to sell to terrorists, he was funding terrorist causes, he was training terrorists (one of his terrorist camps even had a plane fuselage to practice with), and he was supplying cash rewards to the families of suicide bombers.

And, by the way, Abbu Abbas, the terrorist who killed Leon Klinghoffer, was provided safe haven by none other than Saddam Hussein.

So, try to put a stop to terrorist attacks on Americans? Or do nothing and continue to let thousands of Americans get slaughtered?

Answer 5

First, let's get one thing straight...you don't vote for dictators...ask the people in Iraq about that.
Second: if you read the Constitution instead of just spouting off about it...you would know that the wire-tapping Bush approved is perfectly legal, and in the Constitution.
Third: Noone is spying on your regular bank funds...if you have international funds that transfer enormous sums of money...then maybe. It is important to know this type of information...because money is required for terrorism... You still have your privacy.
And the people who leaked this story are so intent on bashing Bush..that they risk security to do so...they should be heavily fined...

Answer 6

War taking so long......are you nuts. Something called World War II, or maybe Korean War. Fifty years later, we are still in Korea separating north and south from each other. And we are smack dab in the middle of that line. You need to go back to school and learn history before you spout off about things you know nothing about, except what the newspapers tell you.
Can you say "blind leading the blind"?

Answer 7

He is definitely a trant and a dictator and the most dangerous part of this is that he thinks it is by divine right. He thinks God talks to him directly and tells him what to do. He ignores the constitution and the laws of this Country based on what his god tells him to do. This is dangerous to our freedom in this Country. Not only our civil rights freedoms but our freedom of religion.
This man is on the verge of insanity. Somebody somewhere somehow will expose him in such a way to show even the most die hard religious right republicans the kind of person he really is.

Answer 8

There is no understanding this war. It was an irrational war to begin with based on faulty intelligence and there are people out there that are still trying to rationalize it. The American people are starting to wake up and see that the wool had been pulled over their eyes.

Answer 9

No he is not a tyrant. It is amazing how many of the Democommies have never read history.

Answer 10

our president will go down in history as one of the greatest!
