In all honesty I've looked forward to talking Obama with you. That's why I've been around the board. You have an interesting outlook. Quite frankly your actions suggest you are not comfortable discussing Obama! |

Bush's actions are hardly irrelevant. It appears he tore up the Constitution for political expediency. Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it. It is also highly relevant to know who has been affected by his actions. Don't forget there are many people in army custody to this day whose status must be reviewed, given Bush's utter contempt for constitutional principles and treaty obligations. To sweep all of this under the rug and say "but he isn't president TODAY so we can no longer talk about it" is totally absurd, and I think you know it. |

Was closing gitmo and bringing enemy combatants onto American soil where they have access to constitutional rights the right thing to do -- or in fact is that what is happening? Maybe those prisoners will never land on American soil but rather will end up in a Saudi Arabian prison etc? Surely you can concede that current pressing situations are much more compelling unless of course you are afraid of what you might discover -- hence the retreat to the comfy confines of; "Bush did this and this, and this"? |

If they are more compelling to you, once again- start a thread. They don't seem to be more compelling to you, as you are spending all of your time posting in threads that have nothing to do with Obama, trying to convince everyone that "this is not the thread you are looking for." Bush isn't irrelevant today, even if you say *period* after asserting that he is. Our constitutional liberties and their treatment by a president just 1 month removed from office is hardly irrelevant. *Period* |

I am sorry- you are going to need to repeat all of your points previously made in prior posts, as I now deem them all totally irrelevant *period* due to their having occurred several minutes in the past.

Dodge what? The guy in the clown suit throwing pies at my argument? You will need to prove to me that your argument has nothing to do with Benjamin Harrison failing to wear a coat on inauguration day before we can proceed.
