I love the U.S.A. so if you want to spy on me

[dogday]

then go ahead.

If you want to search my home without the benefit of a warrant, go ahead, I love my country. What? you want to search my computer? my internet records? my library records? what my medical records?


Now let me get this straight. If you love your country you will submit to

Unreasonable searches and seizures
Illegal wire-tapping
Searching of personal and medical records


Have I missed anything?


Oh, and one more thing. I love the U.S.A. but please can't you win the war on terror without knowing when my last gynecological check-up was?

1. Forget knowing when you had one

our national security depends upon you submitting to a gynecological exam every time you fly.

[dogday]

4. It would seem that way

they can be intrusive....

2. It is precisely because you love the U.S.A that the Neocons...

...consider you a risk.

[Crazy Dave]

3. >>Have I missed anything?

You bet you did! If you don't support war, any type of war, even one based on lies and fiction (remember the cartoon mobile chemical lab Powell showed the UN?), if you want our soldiers to come home safe instead of dying, you don't love your country.

[dogday]

5. My only Son is fighting in the war

I support him and his unit and all the soldiers for their efforts. I think I have given as much as I can to the United States Of America. What else is there left?

[Olney Blue]

8. dogday, I hope your son can home soon- healthy and whole

[dogday]

10. Thank you, he said he is pretty safe in Tikrit

but I worry about a revolution in that City one day and worry he could get caught up in it...

[Crazy Dave]

11. And I sure hope you understand why I say what I say...

...and at the same time I thank you and him for your sacrifices and it's why I get real tired of the Rush Limbaughs and the Sean Hannitys that say unless we want them there to die, rather than be home safe with their families, or that democrats don't support them, it is in my opinion an insult to every democrat who is there and even more for those back here listening to the lies everyday.
I know you have more to worry about and I'm truly sorry to bring anything that may have upset you. I really want your son, and everybody else's son's, daughters, husbands, wives, mothers and fathers to come home safe, that they should not be where they are and I'm real tired of hearing that I'm not patriotic for wanting that.

Dave :)

12. You have nothing to apologize for

I am posting this because people who read this need to know that we are doing our fair share for our country. We do support the troops, no matter what party affiliation they are.


I am tired of hearing these blow-hards who have never tasted war making these decisions. I want a war hero making decisions, someone who has been there and knows what hell it is....

6. Obviously you don't understand that your uterus, your bloodstream

and your mind are government property. Your body belongs to them, after all.

[Olney Blue]

7. In regard to your gynecological check-ups- be ready-

It's pretty clear that this misadministration wants to have total control over your uterus.

[BlueCaliDem]

9. I love the Constitution and the Bill of Rights more. n/t

[KayLaw]

13. Now, now

Freedom isn't free, you know and everything changed with 9/11. What it freedom, you ask? Freedom is what our leader says it is, of course.

14. You missed the part about what this really could mean.

Bush sees you as a threat. You could simply have been opposing this administration voicing your opinion for them to be spying (Richard Herse is a good example of this abuse).

Next, what's to stop them from breaking down your door dragging you out of your house throwing you in jail for as long as they like without a lawyer or a charge or reading you any rights. Why? Because you opposed the Bush administration. Why? Because the same person who chose to spy on you now determines what a threat is.

While the nation was horrified and in a panic over 9/11 the Bush administration was busily seeking ways to take away your rights.

15. On the upside

Maybe if they start keeping track of every woman's gynecological check-up, we'll finally have the evidence to prove adults aren't getting the kind of health care needed to prevent catastrophic illness. Just trying to find a pony in the shitpile. :)
