Wow! Go off the deep end much, Bent?

Hobbes maintained that men readily trade their liberty for security. Thomas Hobbes, Leviathan (1651). Indeed, one need only look to the Patriot Act of 2001 and the Military Commissions Act of 2006 to see that this is true.

If you support the US Constitution, whether it hurts or helps you, were you born here & raised here in the USA?


USAF brat, born in Sherman, Okla. I support the US Constitution 100%. I am part of the Constitutional Cult
Me too. I swore an oath to it three times. I think the only difference between me and most politicians is I actually meant it.
