Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

Paul is a nut, but this bill that got passed was bi-partisan, and whoever voted for it was nuts too.

I cannot imagine an American, much less a politician voting to arrest other Americans with no trial, no recourse, no lawyer.But they did it. The Nazi a-holes.

Lindsey Graham and John McCain tried to tear a new one in Rand Paul because he was against it in the Senate. We have no leadership in Washington. We are at war with ourselves and our leaders are winning.

You are being deceived by the misrepresentations of what the legislation actually says and means. In fact, doing what Ron Paul insists must be done would constitute a war crime, which is why Allen West and others rightly rejected Ron Paul’s claims.

Regardless of what anyone has to say about Ron Paul, I heard that this bill was bad news for liberty.

Paul was right on this one although he is wrong on other issues.

The war on (some) drugs, booze and tobacco emboldened them and they expanded the precedents to other things.

I am not at all surprised by this and expect it to accelerate at a tremendous pace.

Sadly enough, there are plenty of FReepers that support the precedents to these things and that troubles me deeply
