through your clothing so now you get to be ogled by the government.
How is it that *Obama who was so concerned for the* *terrorists rights*
being violated under enhanced interrogations is now totally unconcerned
about violating *REAL* citizens covered by the constitution?
*Obama sides with the terrorists and throws the people under the bus*

*BE VERY CONCERNED*
*The Civil war has begun and you just don't know it* ....Look at the
Liberal attacks on the people that raise their heads above the crowd,
the Liberals/Socialists viciously attempt to destroy them.
Joe the Plumber and Palin and Now Wilson and dozens in between.
They attack on every front, Internet hacking attacks, frivolous legal
attacks to consume energy and money, Personal attacks on opponents and
family. Propaganda attacks are coordinated across Liberal Media the
Unions and the Executive Branch and Congress and community organizing
foot soldiers...
If you remember back to the Revolutionary war, the War was waged by
*targeting the officers* of the English military to create disarray and
confusion in our enemy.
The Progressive-Socialists have been using this tactic for some time
now, they have adopted Saul Alinsky's plan to target their opponents and
viscously destroy them, these Socialists even try to *destroy the*
*Families* to destroy anyone that would show signs of organizing the
opposition into a cohesive resistance to the Socialist steam roller.
We haven't yet progressed to large battles with shooting in the streets
but we have violence and protests and subversive sabotage of the enemy.
Obama has declared war on his enemy and they are us.
The left has created a third front in America's war and it is the Civil
War against capitalism, the *Socialist In Chief* has decided to attack
our own, and in the midst of a foreign war he has increased the
hostility against our own people.
The Socialists have diverted the interest in winning in Afghanistan for
the attack and domination of the economy, for Socialism over Capitalism
and for the Government over the people of the USA.

MANFRED the heat seeking OBOE
Strange but TRUE,
OBAMA and OBAMUNISM is set to eclipse
even the outrages of both Clinton's by
utilizing both of them for their own personal advantage...
Case in point:
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/article6973966.ece
Panic room saved artist Kurt Westergaard from Islamist assassin
He did not have time to collect the child from the living room before
locking himself into a �panic room�, a specially fortified bathroom. He
said the assailant had shouted �swear words, really crude words� and
shrieked about �blood� and �revenge�, as he smashed the axe in vain
against the bathroom door.
....
The attacker, who was also carrying a knife, shouted,
�I�ll be back�,
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
before going outside to confront police. He smashed a police car window
with the axe and was shot in the hand and a knee when he threw the axe
at an officer.,,,
This is the Emminent Monsterdom that both Clinton's defend,
OBAMA appologizes to, and LIBs sponsor.
An Evil which has no justification,
nor does it seek any.

Clinton Narrates Wolf-Friendly Peter and the Wolf
In the new version, narrated by former U.S. president Clinton
and called Wolf Tracks, Peter again captures the wolf, but this time
repents of his act and releases the animal,
who howls a grateful goodbye.
Is it
REALLY goodbye?
or is it a vengeful "I'll be Back...", NOW WE KNOW THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER.
How soon will SUCH be knocking on your door?
And what WILL OBAMA's Truth Squads be doing then?
Aren't they the one's passing out the axe's to be used?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3tTHn2tHhcI
For all his Lareate-ness, OBAMA advisors are seeking new ways
of incorporating bio-metrics and shock collars as
deterents to prevent in-flight catastrophe.
How well do you think THAT will work?
LIB strategic insanity is the beginning and end of the world's problems.
Had Bill Clinton done back in '93 to Mogadishu, precisely what
Ethopia accomplished in a single week a decade later there
would have been no 911, OBL, or AlQaeda.
"to leave now we would send a message to terrorists
and other potential adversaries around the world that
they can change our policies by killing our people.
It would be open season on Americans."
-- Bill Clinton '93
just before he pulled out of Somalia.
The world is the way it is precisely because of Bill Clinton,
precisely because of the LIBS, who not only proudly do unto their
own, precisely what they forbid us to do to our Adversaries,
but also sponsor and defend our Adversaries.
The world is the way it is because Good Men do Absolutely Nothing.
Got LIBS? Got TERROR.
Even as Wave after Wave of Terror appear over the Horizon
as did so many Luftwaffe during the Battle of Britain,
LIBS continue to deny that their intent could be knowable,
that their allegiance unclear.
LIBs, what price their vision?

If you do not want to have to go through the scans you do not have to
fly because that is not a right. Now as the Full Body scans were just
dandy when Lord Bush wanted it but now it is evil under this
President. As there is the fact that the scans will see nothing more
than if you are concealing a weapon or explosives. As the Party of No
has been trying to stop anything that the President wants including
stalling allowing the chief transportation safety official from
getting a vote or anything that will stop real terrorists. I guess we
know where the Republicans stand they are with the Terrorists and thus
they really are the Enemies of the American People.

No, its not alright.

OK now explain why that when that "black person does it" meaning uses
the Patriot Act, then you have zero to say about it...
Maybe if Obama has used his "Super powers" to reverse at least part of
the Patriot act it would have been a hopeful sign.

Privacy of your person is a 4th amendment right.... and even though you
are driving on Public transportation roads or walking on public side
walks, you still have a right to *not* be searched without a warrant.
They don't tell you that if you choose to step on a side walk you must
first submit to a search, because it is unconstitutional.
You say the government could tell you that if you drive your car on a
government road that our government has a right to scan your body
anytime they want. Yet they don't do that, they ask before they search
and then get a warrant if they don't get permission. Step on a side
walk and the government can pick you up and file you through a truck
with portable scanners in them?
> Now as the Full Body scans were just

Actually it is evil under "Government". Now if you Declare war against
someone then there are certain laws and rights that are temporarily
suspended.

Why scan little old ladies, are they known bombers?

No It is Democrats that are for the terrorists, you want to infringe on
*all* of the free people and that is the terrorists plan too.
While the rest of us say that searching the Muslims who are not all
terrorists but all terrorists are all Muslim is OK. It infringes on
fewer people freedom.
That will at least put pressure on Muslims to report the terrorists and
alienate them from the Muslim community or the Muslims will suffer
higher scrutiny. But even that is unconstitutional unless we declare war
on Al Qaeda.

If you do *NOT* want to be scanned you do not have to walk on a public

If you do *NOT* want to be scanned you do not have to walk on a public
sidewalk?
Maybe your Government should require people to get a license to ride in
an airplane.
And make Government force people to sign the license that says they will
submit to a full body scan, like the government had to do to get Drunks
to submit to breathalyzers.... because it is unconstitutional for
government to search your body without a warrant. And actually there is
no allowance for people to give consent.
But then government can't deny you use, if you say no to the search.
Because that makes your right to NOT be searched, subject to
*government_coercion* as in being tortured to get a confession. And your
rights are NOT a bargaining chip for government to negotiate with, it is
yours and government can't infringe. In short, you can't give up a right
without a constitutional amendment.

*In short you can't give up a right without a constitutional amendment*
you can't give up your right to free speech or your right to keep and
bear arms, you can choose not to exercise them. But the right to not be
searched is actually a limit on government to keep them from stepping on
your personal privacy.
So while you may grant permission to government to search you, that
doesn't remove the constitutional law that prevents government from
searching your person without a warrant. In essence the constitution
applies to the government and no one person can change that
constitutional requirement to get a warrant.
"Amendment IV
The right of the people to be *secure in their persons* , houses,
papers, and effects, *against unreasonable searches* and seizures,
*shall not be violated* , and *no Warrants shall issue* ,
*but upon probable cause* , supported by Oath or affirmation, and
particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or
things to be seized."
There is no "right" for you to make the government above this amendment,
even if you say they may search... that does not nullify the fact the
constitution forces the government to get a warrant.
There is no such thing in this amendment that says consenting to the
search would nullify the governments requirements in the amendment.

As it looks, you're the one that's making excuses for Obama at this
moment and bush was an evil right wing nut....
The truth is I'm not right wing and I didn't want Bush to have "card
Blanch" with the Patriot act and why did your Democrat congress *NOT*
let the sunset clause kill the Patriot act and then give limited powers
to Obama that he needs to fight terrorists, that or DECLARE WAR on Al
Qaeda to give constitutional powers to the President.

The infamous Patriot Act effects far more than the 4th A.
Place the blame where it belongs.
The Neocons wrote the infamous Patriot Act.
Congress enacted the infamous Patriot Act.
George Bush signed the infamous Patriot Act into law.
The SCOTUS accepted it.
All this even as the dot com and housing bubbles were beginning
to burst and the stage was set for more treason and criminality.
Here is one section from the infamous Patriot Act as passed
into law by the US Congress in 2001 and expanded since.
Ask the Patriot Act, "who is a terrorist?"
Section 802 reads that YOU are a terrorist if the president
or his designee so declares.
Now ask the Patriot Act, "who is a criminal?"
Section 802 reads that YOU are a criminal if the president
or his designee so declares you a terrorist.
Note that this document specifies that a terrorist may be
*any* person so designated by the Secretary of State or the
Attorney General OR, *any* person suspected of violating any
federal or state criminal law OR *any* person suspected of
actually or intending to, intimidate or coerce any person.
In others words, *any person suspected of a crime can be
designated a terrorist/criminal, secretively seized and tried
leaving no public record*.
Here's the law...
++++++++++++++
SEC. 802. DEFINITION OF DOMESTIC TERRORISM.
(a) DOMESTIC TERRORISM DEFINED- Section 2331 of title 18,
United States Code, is amended--
(1) in paragraph (1)(B)(iii), by striking `by assassination
or kidnapping' and inserting `by mass destruction,
assassination, or kidnapping';
(2) in paragraph (3), by striking `and';
(3) in paragraph (4), by striking the period at the end and
inserting `; and'; and
(4) by adding at the end the following:
`(5) the term `domestic terrorism' means activities that--
`(A) involve acts dangerous to human life that are a violation
of the criminal laws of the United States or of any State;
`(B) appear to be intended--
`(i) to intimidate or coerce a civilian population;
`(ii) to influence the policy of a government by intimidation
or coercion; or
`(iii) to affect the conduct of a government by mass
destruction, assassination, or kidnapping; and
`(C) occur primarily within the territorial jurisdiction of
the United States.'.
(b) CONFORMING AMENDMENT- Section 3077(1) of title 18, United
States Code, is amended to read as follows:
`(1) `act of terrorism' means an act of domestic or
international terrorism as defined in section 2331;'.
++++++++++++++
Comments:
Terrorism then is any activity that may:
`(A) involve acts dangerous to human life that are a violation
of the criminal laws of the United States or of any State;
...or an act that may:
`(B) appear to be intended--
`(i) to intimidate or coerce a civilian population;
`(ii) to influence the policy of a government by
intimidation or coercion; or
`(iii) to affect the conduct of a government by mass
destruction, assassination, or kidnapping; and
`(C) occur primarily within the territorial jurisdiction
of the United States.'.
Which could apply to any criticism of government or politicians
or half of the material on the NGs.
Note the wording for amending Section 3077(1) of title 18,
United States Code, it is is amended to read:
`(1) `act of terrorism' means an act of domestic or
international terrorism as defined in section 2331;'.
Which effectively means that "domestic" terrorism is the same as
"international" terrorism.
Further as we see in Sec.411 below, that a terrorist is ...
`(aa) a foreign terrorist organization, as designated by the
Secretary of State under section 219, or
`(bb) a political, social or other similar group whose public
endorsement of acts of terrorist activity the Secretary of
State has determined undermines United States efforts to
reduce or eliminate terrorist activities,';
Summary of this portion of Section 802 - A terrorist is any
person suspected of violating any federal or state criminal
law OR any person suspected of actually or intending to,
intimidate or coerce any person.

Mobility is a Right.
Commercial airlines are private.
Highways and sidewalks are public.
I believe that Congress *cannot* lawfully pass an amendment which
removes or modifies any of the Bill of Rights.
To believe otherwise contradicts the intent and purpose of the
Constitution and nullifies the agreement.
Strabo
He won't support that.
Obama-Soetoro argued in his biography and in a candidacy speech that the
Constitution needs to be changed. The infamous Patriot Act effectively
circumvents the Bill of Rights.

They have zero authority to ignore your rights. Search and seizure
doesn't limit the 4th amendment to government violation. They are also
government regulated and the sucurity is government, not private.
> Highways and sidewalks are public.
Which is what an airport is. Which is what a runway is and given the
fact it's public transportation, the airplane is as public as a side
walk, we are charged for all of them.
Yes they can, prohibition was passed to ban alcohol, then I believe the
18th amendment created that ban on alcohol which was repealed, look at
amendment 13 - 21 I added them all below. It is how the constitution
was designed to work, passing laws has no effect on the Constitution,
but Congress has been passing laws for years that they think their laws
trump the constitution. They don't, NOTHING DOES.
> To believe otherwise contradicts the intent and purpose of the

NOT AT ALL, the whole point of the constitution was to make it difficult
to change the base laws of the nation. The fact that some judges have
declared that it's OK to search people without a warrant just highlights
that they are willing to lie to get more control of you.

The 4th amendment is also.

They have zero authority to ignore your rights. Search and seizure
doesn't limit the 4th amendment to government violation. They are also
government regulated and the sucurity is government, not private.
> Highways and sidewalks are public.
Which is what an airport is. Which is what a runway is and given the
fact it's public transportation, the airplane is as public as a side
walk, we are charged for all of them.

Yes they can, prohibition was passed to ban alcohol, then I believe the
18th amendment created that ban on alcohol which was repealed, look at
amendment 13 - 21 I added them all below. It is how the constitution
was designed to work, passing laws has no effect on the Constitution,
but Congress has been passing laws for years that they think their laws
trump the constitution. They don't, NOTHING DOES.

NOT AT ALL, the whole point of the constitution was to make it difficult
to change the base laws of the nation. The fact that some judges have
declared that it's OK to search people without a warrant just highlights
that they are willing to lie to get more control of you.
Amendment IV
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers,
and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be
violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause,
supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place
to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
Amendment V
AMENDMENT XIII
AMENDMENT XV

As I said we meaning you would know exactly what you voted for.
And I voted for Prell to go back to the old glass bottle. After that, I
became deeply cynical.

You've got Prell over there too? Sheesh, I hadn't seen it for years, and
all of a sudden I saw a bunch of bottles of it sitting at a local store.
It doesn't smell like it used to, or I would have bought some. It's good
for oily hair...and what hair I have is oily.

Sure, if you want to do it the "conventional way"

My ex-GF ignores Seon for the most part. Maybe she should do a little
"paper" on him. Might be interesting.

Or any other method you can come up with that differentiates what you write
from what others write. We might have a chance of understanding what it is
you're getting at if you did that.

Why doesn't Seon just make up his own special language? Oh wait, other

Wow. What a concept.
