Feingold: "Give me liberty or give me death!"
It's incredible, did Cornyn actually say "None of your civil liberties matter much after you're dead." ?

The GOP are all fascist pigs...video link here:

1. I just love Feingold
But I hope he's not putting any ideas into Bushco's head by saying this.

5. "None of your civil liberties matter much after you're dead." ......
So then what the fuck did so many people die protecting in Iraq again?! If civil liberties don't matter then why all the fuss about spreading democracy? The cognitive dissonance repukes are able to endure is truly epic!:wtf:

9. Because it's not about democracy
It's about control, oil and tons of money.

6. Give my Senator
A lot of credit. If I was sitting next to Cornyn, I would've just looked at him and said "How the fuck did you get elected?"

7. Dana Rohrbacher had an interesting version of Cornyn's statement
Edited on Tue Dec-20-05 12:09 AM by Cocoa
he said yesterday, if the terrorists nuke Washington D.C., the Constitution will burn quickly anyway.

http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0512/16/sitroom.03.html

BARR: And the Constitution be damned, Dana?

ROHRABACHER: Well, I'll tell you something, if a nuclear weapon goes off in Washington, DC, or New York or Los Angeles, it'll burn the Constitution as it does. So I'm very happy we have a president that's going to wiretap people's communication with people overseas to make sure that they're not plotting to blow up one of our cities.

10. Not really
It'd still be our laws and you can bet that Byrd will have one in his coat pocket.

13. Sounds like a RW fantasy
Then they could have their little militias shoot all liberals, gays and blacks right in the streets.

It'll be a sign that Jay-sus is a comin'!
