Thread Name: BS: Obama and Torture
Subject: RE: BS: Obama and Torture
The initial post in this thread cited a piece from the World Socialist Website. My last citation came from the other end of the political spectrum.

Regardless of where the information came from, it is valid. Look at the last article. It describes what Obama did, in just FOUR DAYS, regarding our rights as Americans:

1) On Sunday he renewed warrantless secret wiretapping. So, the federal government can continue to invade your privacy in a way that is an ABSOLUTE violation of the 4th Amendment to our constitution.

2) On Weds. he renewed the National Defense Authorization Act. This is the act in which he says he can disappear Americans without trial.

3) On Weds. his lawyers won a ruling to keep drone murders secret. Obama has already killed Americans with drones, and now a court gave him a green light to keep on doing it.

You liberals screamed when Bush began implementing this stuff, but now you're fine with it?
