That's what Ofraud said when he signed the NDAA and made sure American citizens were on the list. ORomney said he too would have signed it. Surely you are not supporting locking up American citizens without our constitutional due process?
Read the amendment, detention is limited by the duration of the armed conflict. "If the detainee is an enemy combatant who has not violated the laws of war, he is not chargeable with any triable offense."
You're trying to blur the distinction between domestic criminal law and the laws of war. So what are YOU so afraid of? Are YOU planning an attack on America?
Authorization of use of military force already grants presidential authority for indefinite detention. YOU can thank BUSH for that!
The 'war on terror' was begun knowing it would last at least 20 years. In fact, it must be endless, as we can never be certain there aren't 'terrorists' out there SOMEWHERE. You might as well imprison Americans for LIFE without a trial. Yes, Bush was an Authoritarian just like Obama. And I don't see O making any moves to repeal any of B's work.
I am not planning any attack and I resent you even making that accusation. Can you say that to my face when not hiding behind your little computer? There is only one party and bushwacker set up Ofraud to pour gas on the fire. I hold you and your type totally responsible for the demise of America.
