Now can we restore the Bill of Rights?
Now that the Terrorist in Chief is dead, could we have the Fourth Amendment back again?

2. I wish it worked that way. That's why you shouldn't give up those rights to begin with...

6. The joke's on you....
After Bush wiped his ass with the Constitution (it's just a piece of paper!) it was never repaired.

9. Lets not forget the Democrats that voted to give the President that freedom.
Seems to me one of those Democrats is in the White House now.

I don't think we will see a reversal of policy until long after this administration.

10. That's exactly why I was asking the question...
No one seems to be bothered by the voiding of the Constitution.

5. Yes, the one change I wanted most when the election was over was
the restoration of Habeas Corpus.

8. The what?
We used our last copy of the Constitution to wrap the body, and dumped them both into the drink. Now, what were you saying about the . . . Fourth Amendment? What was that about? Are you worthy of these so-called "rights"? They're reserved only for some people, and that's decided on kind of an ad hoc basis. If you're odious enough, or if we can persuade some people that you're odious enough, you aren't entitled to "rights."

However, lest you think we're no better than the old Soviet Union, we will not charge your family for the bullet.
