i agree with the overall thrust of your post... but you did a very poor job of encouraging sober bipartisan discussion. Describing the President as an evil man who is exploiting the nation's fears to quench an insatiable desire for power isn't a great start.
That being said...
i do think the nation has overreacted to a terrorist threat. it seems like a lot of the measures are being taken just to make the politicians look busy.
i go to work each day in uniform having taken an oath to support and defend the Constitution w/my life... that's the price of my liberty.
