Barack Obama’s indefinite detention claim, coupled with the enemy combatant right he inherited, enables him to lock up any US citizen forever without a trial, author and political consultant Naomi Wolf told RT.

American Jews beginning to favor two-state solutionBarack Obama’s message of change could have consequences for US-Israeli relations. Polls show that after years of unconditional support, Americans now think it is time to get tough with Israel over the peace process. |

This variety of comments illustrates the problem of preenting factual truth in the United States today. Most people will blindly parrot the "talking points" of their political belief system, in spite of any facts to the contrary. Belief systems (like religions) have no use for facts. Humans the world over "love to hate," and they often spew their hatred in a righteousness born in a defense of the belief system. What does Obama's authority to arrest citizens and hold for life without trial, have to do with the assumption that W. Bush did not demolish the World Trade Center? Of course we do not know if "W" had his hands in the demolitions of the three WTC buildings (The Twin Towers and the 47 story "Building 7", which was also demolished), but we do have evidence of Dick Cheney the CIA and Mossad, and several other groups in the fruit pie of planning and cover-up. Not the least of which is the traces of "thermite" used to methodically sever the steel support beams as the buildings collapsed. Even the two chairmen of the "9-11 Commission" have publicly commented that they and their report were misled by the Bush Administration. In the United States, as Naomi Wolf points out, Obama has the “laws” in place which allow him all of the heinous crimes of any past president, plus a few new ones should he feel like participating. Rather than form a united front of citizens to demand a stop to such absurd abuses of the U.S. Constitution and the citizenry, our citizens are moved to fight and scream against each other, defending their personal political belief systems politically manifested as Republicans, Democrats, Conservatives, Liberals, Socialists, etc. Too bad only the Republicans can see how bad Obama is, and only the Democrats can see how bad Bush was.
George Bush protected our country for 8 years.He authorized the right agencies to help keep us safe.His administration went Awol during his term and left him holding the bag.It was Osama Bin Laden that started the need for Gitmo and The Patriot Act. It was not George Bush that bombed The World Trrade Center! The president did what he had to.And with every administration since FDR,the goverment agencies went thier own way.Borth Republican and Democrat voted for the measures under The Patriot Act.In 2002 the house and senate were screaming for vengeance.George Bush did what he was hired to do.He protected the country against enemies both foriegn and domestic.The liberals of our nation are hypocrites.They cry about war and terrorism but sign into law measures that can easily be abused.Democrates voted in The Atom Bomb in 1945.They demonize Republicans and try to look Saintly.Onama is a dictator,who will be either impeached or not re-elected once the country sees his treachery.The Stimulus money was wasted and poorly distributed.The rich got richer,even without George Bush.Good ol'George!
WOW! We Americans had better sit up and take notice. We have been asleep way too long. Americans need to be on their knees. God is still very much in control. He always will be. There is a better government coming. Jesus will be coming soon and He will be our King. He is the King of the universe.
