  3. Balancing her range to fool all the sheep watching. Now they can be like "Seeeeeeeee she's totally not biased."
  4. Doesn't she understand that this president has done way more good than bad, so we can let this sort of thing slide. On a side note, I see the NAACP's position on gay marriage evolved last week too.
  5. I think she's genuine in her criticism and isn't just looking to "balance her range." That's the great thing about defending civil liberties, people on both sides of the isle see the value in protecting them (unless you're the elite of either party).
  6. Seems standard for a liberal to take this stance against such a non-constitutional change. I for one am against all forms of "prolonged detention" to include this, Guantanamo, even simply life imprisonment for an actual crime/crimes.
  7. One of the worst policies adopted in a long time and no one cares... standard. absurd.
  8. yea, this is pretty bad to give this power to a president/govt.
     
  9. "Prolonged detention." Last used by a democratic President named FDR.

    Your grasp on the American electorate is underwhelming.

    Your statement is out of context and makes no sense when coupled with what you qouted.

    Huh? I'm suggesting that when a liberal newscaster criticizes a policy from a liberal president on an issue of civil liberties then the policy probably isn't a good one.

    ....so wait, you're leveling? And you really do think that prolonged detention is a good thing?
  17. She is horrible.

    Looool @ comparing locking up terrorists to a precrime movie. Ffs


    I think it's funnier how obama wont send these suspects to gitmo bc gimo bad! And he wont send em for rendition so...we justbomb them instead of capture. Dead terrorist is a good terrorist but he also cant tell us much. Just more of obama's goofy way if doing what must be done but feeling real bad about the horrible excesses...of bush. Lol
  18. well it's still better than drone killing. That's my least favorite of all of his power grabs

    Locking people up for potential future crimes and comparing that to a movie where people are locked up for potential future crimes? Yeah I see the problem...

    The movie is about the government detaining people to prevent future crime.
    Obamas speech was about detaining people to prevent future crime.
  22. Just to be clear who is for prolonged detention itt?

    No I couldn't because then it would be a blanket statement that isn't true. I'm certainly not giving Maddow any credence when she complains about policies from a president that frees markets, reduces taxation or reduces regulation.

    No it isn't. You never differentiated the kind of president in your original question. If I said "yes" to your question then the statement would apply to any policy by any president from any party.
