Reply #36: Not many take cues from the Dem party as to what to believe

or how important an issue is.

They do not tell me what to think nor does their position on a matter preclude my own independent decision. It was wrong for the Dems to join with the pukes on this. What I think is that most libertarian-minded Americans are going to be pissed about this, and rightly so. If the Democrats voted for it, it doesn't surprise me in today's climate. Heck, even habeas corpus and the constitutional right to a trial took a backseat to politics with a third of the Democrats.

Our government isn't about upholding rights. It is only taking them away....both parties.
