those who will give up their rights for promises of security wind up getting neither, to paraphrase Ben Franklin.

8. Going by all your other posts |
|
It was a very safe assumption too.
And of course that's all you heard --you have no room for anything except except your knee jerk reactions.

5. National security does not have to trump human rights, personal liberties, and the basic |
|
foundation of freedom: our national security depends on these values. Those who would trample those in the name of national security lie for what they are really up to is the nazification of those sacred rights and liberties.

6. However National Security is a primary function of the govt |
|
And should be a priority, of course not above human rights and civil libertiesm but i still think it should be up there.

12. I hear ya and I tend to feel the same way about it all at times. |

Don't give up your right to vote and if it comes that the nominee of your choice is not there then just do a write-in vote during the GE if that nominee is in your opinion that far out of line. Now if the nominee isn't who you would like don't let anybody tell you that party loyalty for that nominee is more important either as it is not more important than one's principles or country imho. I do like how you make a general statement in your OP about most of the cadidates and out comes the hilbot damage control team to only discredit and defame you. Sorry they don't seem to get that discreditting and belittling others does not credit their candidate in a positive way. I'm sure they'll start flaming away at me for saying all of this, but I don't let verbal strongarming sway me.

I'm not going to bash you, just laugh at you. These regular little temper tantrums, all saying the same thing, all predictable down to the last exclamation point, are funny as hell.

15. "National security" is an excuse for corporate welfare for the military contractors |
|
All of our wars since World War II have been unnecessary and have actually made this country less secure by ruining our international reputation.

Supporting Human rights and promoting our security go hand in hand.
Dont fall for the Corporate NeoCon framing.
