Moses had been up on Sinai for a while, when the Israelites impatiently concluded that the God who'd freed them from slavery, parted the Red Sea and worked miracles in the desert for His chosen people wasn't good enough. They wanted a more convenient god. So the Israelites melted their jewelry into a golden calf and worshipped it. This produced undesirable results.

Individual liberty is our security

Yet so many are willing to throw that away for a false security blanket.

How is this 'America bashing?'

Your thoughts on this article?

The most powerful man in the world preached big-government religion, and we fell to our knees.

Some of us didn't.

This could've been written by a leftist. Enough of the America bashing already. Most sensible Americans do not agree with the author of this "article."

I guess those are the same "sensible Americans" who think Al Gore is right when he talks about "the living Constitution" or "breathing new life into" the Constitution. He can keep his damn lips the hell off my Constitution, thank you very much!

[WALLACE212]

I agree.

He never said we were violating the Geneva Convention. He is pointing out that we never even got close to it since war was never offically declared.

Don't hold your breath.
