We Know McCain=Bush, So What’s the Problem?

Started by menstrualpoetry · 10 months ago

Two days ago, a 61 year old librarian was escorted from a public McCain campaign event at the Denver Center of Performing Arts in Denver, CO. What was this woman doing wrong to get her not only escorted off of city property she had every right to be on, but also served with a [...] ... Continue reading »

They're taking away a lot more than our 1st amendment rights. The PATRIOT Act effectively did away with our 4th amendment freedom from illegal search and seizure with this new "Sneak and Peek" initiative. Did you know it now allows law enforcement officials to come into your home without you present and search your things without your knowledge and/or consent? So long as they don't take anything, they are not required to notify you (the dweller or homeowner) for up to 30 days AFTER THE FACT (and longer if the courts give permission). That's pretty messed up! Thanks for that Bush! Neither McCain nor Obama are discussing repealing this invasive, unconstitutional Act.

Now we have the H.R. 6304: FISA Amendments Act of 2008, which threatens to further undermine the 4th amendment by providing immunity to telecom companies, allowing for unlawful surveillance of the people. You and others can read the bill (which has since passed the House) in its entirety at: http://www.govtrack.us/congress/billtext.xpd?bi...

This video looks bad but I get the feeling that I'm not seeing the whole picture here. If the video does tell the whole picture then this is clearly wrong. City property and they are preventing freedom of speech. Sad.

The government will do what it wants. I mean they can call anyone an "enemy combatant" and hold them indefinitely. This video is just an example of that.

From an outsider's point of view, I don't have much of an opinion about McCain or Obama, but I sure am glad that Hilary is no longer on my TV screen ever day.

I believe the comments on this article are slightly one sided. Though I do agree whole heartdly that this woman did nothing wrong, and though this may sound naive, I believe that anyone as dedicated to becoming President as John McCain or Barack Obama have the good of the American public at the top of their priorites. And if this isn't true, then our world is far worse than I have hoped.

poor lady...but thats real. She didn't do anything. She just had her sign up. It goes to show how the police protects the public. Hope she got out of custody that day.

As this event took place on city property, it's quite wrong for them to kick her out. If it was on private property, then go right ahead but she had every right to be there if it's on public property.

@Sarah, our world is real bad right now. Neither McCain nor Obama have the American public anywhere close to the top of their priorities. They are rich elitist politicians who are working for the benefit of their major donors, not the public. Vote for a 3rd party if you're trying to vote for someone who is closer to and cares more about the average American.

I bet if you asked a group of 20 people. 75% of them would say that we do not want another Bush in the white house.
