well...no. the right wing liar (a redundancy) forgets to tell us that
obama said he'd obey CONGRESSIONAL mandates...which is what this was

bush said he didn't need congressional oversight to detain people.
obama says he does.

so the right wing liar strikes again.

guess the moron didn't read the article:

"Instead, the administration will continue to hold the detainees
without bringing them to trial based on the power it says it has under
the Congressional resolution passed after the attacks of Sept. 11,
2001, authorizing the president to use force against forces of Al
Qaeda and the Taliban.

But President Obama’s advisers are not embracing the more disputed
Bush contention that the president has inherent power under the
Constitution to detain terrorism suspects indefinitely regardless of
Congress.

The Justice Department said in a statement Wednesday night that “the
administration would rely on authority already provided by Congress”
under the use of force resolution. “The administration is not
currently seeking additional authorization,” the statement said."


so the article says congress gave the president the power to hold
detainees...the president does not himself, apart from a congressional
mandate, have the power to hold detaineess...

the right wing is trying to have it both ways...arguing the president
CAN hold people without congressional approval AND saying obama's
arguing this.

which, of course, is a lie.

This is known as a distinction without a difference. If Obama doesn’t
see the need to get Congressional authorization for continued
indefinite detention, then it means that Obama believes he has that
power under the Constitution from which he derives all authority.
Obama may not want to say it out loud, but his actions speak volumes.
Obama has adopted the Bush position in its entirety.

Obama is a master of this type of prevarication. For the Pinheads,
this might help you - a definition: to speak falsely or misleadingly;
deliberately misstate or create an incorrect impression; lie.

What is getting more and more amusing is that the Left is becoming
more and more marginlised - just look at the responses to all this
recent activity by yours truly. The Pinheads are literally talking to
themselves. Facts don't matter, truth doesn't matter, logic/reason/
verity just don't matter.

Normally, I would expect at least one of these Pinheads admit that
Obama has some problems keeping his lines/stories and promises
straight. They have drunk the Kool-Aid however, swallowed the arsenic
and can't purge themselves of their closely held beliefs.

Stay tuned for a major block buster report about AARP, it's insurance
plan, Federal support and the health care bill.

This is going to be a MAJOR issue in the coming weeks. Following the
money - following the money.

You're confused. Here's what your boy promised:

""He will reject the Military Commissions Act, which allowed the U.S.
to circumvent Geneva Conventions in the handling of detainees."

But now he's reversed that. Here's what the ACLU has to say about
that:

Anthony D. Romero, executive director of the American Civil Liberties
Union, said Obama was taking the wrong approach by trying to retain
the commissions.

"As unfortunate as it is to inherit that legacy, to accommodate those
policies is essentially to ratify them," Romero said. "President Obama
would do well to remember his own infamous words during his
presidential campaign: you can't put lipstick on a pig."

Another BO lie.

------------------------------------------------------------
Senior Democrat Says Obama’s Czars Unconstitutional

June 15, 2009Last week President Obama appointed yet another “czar”
with massive government power, answering only to him. Even before this
latest appointment, the top-ranking Democrat in the Senate wrote
President Obama a letter saying that these czars are unconstitutional.
President Obama’s “czar strategy” is an unprecedented power grab
centralizing authority in the White House, outside congressional
oversight and in violation of the Constitution.

As of last week, Czar Kenneth Feinberg has the authority to set the
pay scale for executives at any company receiving government money
(and how many aren’t, these days?). Czar Feinberg has the power to say
that someone’s pay is excessive, and to make companies cut that pay
until the czar is pleased.

Congress did not give Czar Feinberg this authority. For that matter,
Congress has not authorized any of the czars that President Barack
Obama has created. Over the past thirty years presidents have each had
one or two czars for various issues, and once the number went as high
as five. But now, by some counts President Obama has created sixteen
czars, and there may be more on the way. Each of these has enormous
government power, and answers only to the president.
--------------------------------------------------------
"big govt with unlimited powers"... indeed. You're such an idiot you

The constitution says that is THREE branches of government, not Two


you don't know what separation of powers means. no kiddin'. a right
winger only knows the 2nd amendment...


A year ago this was being defined by the left as an abuse of the right
of habeas corpus and due process.


uh...no it wasn't. what WAS being defined as a power grab was bush's
imperial presidency...no limits...no checks...no accountability to
congress

and that's what the article says. i suggest you read it

Suddenly that is OK with you as long
as it is OK with Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi.
Bush would say he got the tacit approval from his congress in the
various war resolutions they passed


and bush said he didn't need it. that's the point.

and you? you just quit reading after the first 3 letter word in the
article


.. The reality for anyone who really
thinks this is a constitutional issue is that neither the congress nor
the president has that power. Due process requires the judiciary.


meaningless


You would have to amend article 1 section 9 of the constitution to
change that.

The flip side of this is others say Gitmo is not in the United States,
these are not US citizens, they are enemy combatants and the
constitution does not apply at all.
This is purely a military exercise and the president is commander in
chief of the military.

centralizing authority in the White House, outside congressional
oversight and in violation of the Constitution.

As of last week, Czar Kenneth Feinberg has the authority to set the
pay scale for executives at any company receiving government money


ah. receiving govt money

funny how you right wingers think the president should have unlimited
powers to arrest and detain, but you shudder with horror over the govt
trying to protect the money it's lent private companies

shows how ****ed up the right really is.

Congress did not give Czar Feinberg this authority. For that matter,

Congress has not authorized any of the czars that President Barack
Obama has created. Over the past thirty years presidents have each
had
one or two czars for various issues, and once the number went as high
as five. But now, by some counts President Obama has created sixteen
czars, and there may be more on the way. Each of these has enormous
government power, and answers only to the president.

Never said that, but you're the guy that backs a president that not
only goes back on his promise to rescind the previous administration's
powers, but then make an unprecedented power grab of his own that his
own party admonishes him for. All the while you blindly march along,
eh comrade?

You either just love to argue, or you're exceptionally stupid. Who am
I kidding, it's both. I'm done.

Quoting H.L Menken? HL Menken?

Then here is a quote of his that you should remember.

"The Presidency tends, year by year, to go to such men. As democracy
is perfected, the office represents, more and more closely, the inner
soul of the people. We move toward a lofty ideal. On some great and
glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's
desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright
moron."

moron." (Baltimore Evening Sun, July 26, 1920)..."

Excellent! ....this is what we get when Americans don't pay attention
to politics until election day.

But lets go for another quote, shall we?

"The men the American people admire most extravagantly are the most
daring liars; the men they detest most violently are those who try to
tell them the truth."

Let go for another, shall we?
