(166 posts)3. Myself, I would be ashamed...
...to have been part of an anti-civil rights demonstration on the floor of the House, advocating to grant the executive branch the power to revoke people's rights with no due process if their name has been scrawled on a secret list. (Such list being, in effect, 90% of P-E. CheetoFace McTribbleHair's much desired "Muslim registry".) I certainly wouldn't want to have any audio or video evidence of my involvement in that attempted gross violation of the Constitution.
But that's just me.
