I did a Google search and ABC news is the only MSM report I saw, on page 5, after about 50 non-MSM reports.
Thing is, the left is hopping mad, especially at DU.
oh definitely. The lefties I know on facebook had a big drive to send obama warnings that their supporters would stay home on election day if he signed it.
I gave them the thumbs up on these efforts but I didn’t think too much about it. You see, I did not believe obama would sign it. I thought there was no chance in hell he would sign it. I thought this was a bill that SOMEONE in congress did not WANT signed into law so they sabotaged it with this stupid provision for indefinite incarceration without a trial.
I am as stunned about him signing it as the lefties are.
At the “discussed earlier” link in Turley’s article above -
comments [appx.200] are for the most part by libs. They are livid over this law; are disgusted with Obama, and the universal tone is that this action of Obie’s is the last straw.
Another theme - horrifying - is that many of them plan to register as Republicans so they can vote in the primaries, for Ron Paul! They want Paul to get the nomination - then they’ll use him as their means to vote Obama out. Paul would then be their very own anti-war, anti-Obama savior - and one who’s definitely not an evil Republican. They don’t care that Paul’s a racist, since Obama’s a racist and nobody seems bothered by it. [nobody but Republicans and conservatives] A bit of liberals’ true colors showing through on the race score.
Even DUmmies are right sometimes.
“Thing is, the left is hopping mad, especially at DU.”
Sure they would be. Before they so-recently traded all their principles for the election of Obama, the traditional left was once a stalwart supporter of civil rights. Or at least, ostensibly.
And yes, Obama signed it, but lets not forget who passed it. Lets ask ourselves, why did our fellow partisans sell us down the river?
