A known comedian stated tonight, in relation to FISA, which President Bush had said that “September 11 had changed everything”, the comedian preceded to indicate: “apparently so, violating the Constitution used to be jail time, not anymore”.
Here is mi concerns with that: I do not mind comedians making fun of the President, as long as people has the common sense to understand that the guy is exaggerating his point in order to gain popularity. It is his Constitutional right.
FISA, or Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, was intended to provide the tools or authorization to listen in conversations of American citizens when they receive or make phone calls to suspected terrorists; it also prohibit citizens from suing phone companies for providing records subpoenaed by the Courts.
Understand that if Mr. Snuffy is talking to a known or perceived terrorist, I want the authorities to listen on the conversation. Ignorance is not an excuse. If the individual you are conducting business with is a friend of Saddam Hussein, like Mr. Rezko, or a friend of someone who has such little regard for life, that he wishes that he had placed more bombs like William Ayres (self confessed domestic terrorist), or has no regard for innocent lives that he or she wants to blow himself or herself up, while at the same time destroying lives and or property, then, they forfeited their civil rights.
Lets face it, our Constitution gives our citizens rights; and contrary to what the Supreme Courts seem to believe, if you are a criminal that is not an American citizen, either because you snuck in the United States illegally, or under false pretenses, or are trying to come in to cause mayhem, or are trying to coordinate with someone to destroy property or hurt innocent lives, you have no rights in my book. The rights guaranteed under the Constitution are for American Citizens. If you are not a citizen, you have the right not to be mistreated, but our authorities have the right to use as much force as needed to neutralize you.
That is not violating the law. That is simply, protecting our citizens. We are the only fools who want to give terrorist, who are not American Citizens and are not even on American soil, rights guaranteed by the Constitution to American citizens.
The excuse that our enemies would torture our men and women in the Service, is just that, an excuse, since the Islamic extremist past time is to chop, non Muslim’s and Muslim’s alike, heads.
And the drug cartels from Mexico, Central, and South America, are not that far behind. They are decapitating each other, which is not that bad, since they neutralize themselves, but also, they are kidnapping, killing, and mutilating innocent people. MS 13, Mexican Zetas, drug cartels, and wannabe mafia enforcers are destroying our youth and our communities, and our politicians are doing next to nothing. Our law enforcement agencies see their hands tied, because politicians favor criminals like Mumia, and the founder of the Creeps, rather that support out Lawmen and women. Right now, we have two Border Patrol agents in jail, while the scumbag that brought tons of drugs illegally into the United States, is still free. The biggest shame was the District Attorney who offered that drug trafficker amnesty, so he would testify against our Law Enforcement Agents, Ramos and Compean.
We need to wake up. Terrorists, drug pushers, gang bangers, all of them surrender their civil rights when they decided that they want to result to violence against innocent citizens.
Right now, we have the opportunity to fire those weak politicians who block and make our Law Enforcement Agents path to protect the innocent. We need to fire those who for decades continue to be elected and their major accomplishment is doing nothing. Those, whose approval rating is lower than King George on the days of the 13 Colonies, deserve to be fired, and since we cannot fire them, we can prevent them from being reelected. Politicians so incompetent that cannot run their own cafeteria without subsidies from the taxpayers do not deserve reelection.
Lets vote them out of their cushy jobs, and bring new ones. It is our right, it is our duty.
