All of a sudden the "exception" becomes the "rule"?

Actually, the concept of Negative Liberties is a leftist idea
It bothers the Left that the Constitution only tells the gov't what it can't do
The Left would prefer if it was more like leftist constitutions and told the gov't
what it was suppose to do
The Founding Fathers understood that with each power one gives the gov't
more power is lost by the individual and that is a bad thing.

The gov't giving people things is not Liberty
At best, it is a "deal with the devil"
I hear you
like the same Bush powers that Papa Obama
kept and has even increased
For example, Papa Obama has quadrupled warrantless wiretaps
Obama is the first president in our history whose margin of victory for reelection was smaller than his first one.
Indeed, his margin of victory dropped by over 60% and he lost many demographic groups that he won handily the first time around.
For example, Romney handily beat Obama among every income group except the bottom two: the poor and lower middle income ($0 to $25K and $25K to $50K). Romney won soundly among voters who earn $50K or more, i.e., the middle class, the affluent, the rich, and the super rich ($50K-$99K, $100K-$199K, $200K-$249K, $250K and above). Romney's margins of victory in those groups were 6%, 10%, 5%, and 13% respectively.
Romney also carried independents by a margin of 5%, 50% to 45%.
On the other hand, Obama soundly beat Romney among high school dropouts, winning that sad demographic by nearly 2 to 1 (64% to 35%). By the way, those uneducated voters accounted for about 3% of all votes cast, so we're not talking about some insignificant number. By any measure, a group that makes up 2-3% of the electorate is important, especially when the election is decided by less than 3%.
If low-income and lower-middle-income voters had not gone so overwhelmingly for Obama--63% to 35% and 57% to 42%--Romney would have won.
So, in a very real sense, one can say that Obama owes his victory to the two bottom income groups and high school dropouts, the two least-successful demographic groups among us.
Damn right.The gov't giving people things is not Liberty

Presidents don't give up power.
Book that.
We still don't like it.Compared to the "lefties" who are Now comfortable with it....
but were not before
I am not outraged at all
National security is one of the few areas that
the Federal gov't should be doing
Assuming that is what the wiretaps are for...
I am just pointing out the lefts' hypocrisy
under Bush, this was one of their most dear causes
But like military deaths in Afghanistan that have gone up
under Papa Obama, more than Bush
the left does not care anymore
Selective righteous indignation rings hollow and hypocrisy is a very lousy excuse. The value of human lives, be that of Iraqis, Afganis or Americans seems to have tumbled since Obama took office.We still don't like it.Compared to the "lefties" who are Now comfortable with it....

We realize that once a power has been established it's next to impossible to go under any President.
That's why we were so gung-ho to stop in the FIRST place under Bush, but we failed thanks to you guys and your complacency for any and everything that scoundrel did.
And yes, we feel safer with those powers in the hands of someone like President Obama, which explains the lack of major outcry.
You have no leg to stand on, as you and your side ushered those powers in.
Cut it out.
My sentiments exactly.Wow, I didn't know that. Far out. Obama is in good company except for that asshole Reagan.
No matter WHAT these Republicans say...Obama has secured his place in history as one of THEE best Presidents and Politicians in US history. Bar-none. Period. Full stop.
Amen! Time for Obama to be on Mt. Rushmore.
