Is this "The war on freedom"?

Question

Is this the war on freedom? can we really say that, having to sign a government list while checking out certin books from the Librarry, Being spied on and then lied to, and actually using "delayed warrents for searching people is helpig us fight terror?
When we trade liberty for security..who really wins? When we ask questions about the war only to be asked in return " why are you asking questions about the war?" What kind of a system is that?
I'm not a Republican, I'm not a Democrat. But When our leader Insults our objections and pleas of concern and then gives himself the label "Educator in Cheif" it sounds like they are trying to take the power of our voices away.
They have a saying in the Army "failing to plan is planning to fail" If we just sit back and ride this out like we have been doing, enduring the highly questionable changes and attempted changes to our constitution. what will our future be like?don't you the freedom to object and not be ivestigated

Answer 1

What you check out at a library has always been subject to be subpoenaed the particular story you are talking about was because a library refused to release the information and was told they had to.

Anything you order can be traced. The FISA laws are still in effect. In order to search your home or wire tap you they must have reasonable proof that you are in or have been in contact with a known terrorist or freqently call a known terrorist state.

It is well that you are concerned but that you blame only this administration is patently obsurd. The Clinton administration was the one that weakened the FISA laws and actually started the compiling of lists of people that checkout or order by mail information that it deemed dangerous. The reasonable expectation of privacy clause allows all public areas including payphones to be survailed without warrent or notification.

These laws are not new and have been used for a very long time.

Answer 2

We have much at stake, and the depth to which this goes is further than we can comprehend.

My late mother spoke much about living through WWII, and Hitler, and I was always reminded that it could happen here, too, if we were not diligent.

I would call your attention to the following URLs.

Answer 3

Every time a new law is passed in America just one more of our freedoms is taken away.

Now, Americans need a passport in order to enter America.

Have you ever heard of such stupidity?

Soon, we will live in a dictatorship and the lame duck will not be the "decider," but the "dictator."

Answer 4

now your country has many of the same laws communist countries have. doesn't that make you feel prouder then $&!#. many of the gullable have had their thinking done for them by fox news, as they just parrot the propaganda in a slick way. i thought Americans were fiercely independant not docile sheep having and clamouring for more laws that commie pinko countries consider the norm. I'm dissapointed, looks like the terrorists have won.
