    I know for a fact that it is not the U.S. so could you give me some input on what country it is?

    Thanks!

    What Constitution?

    Bush just signed the Military Commissions Act of 2006, otherwise known as the death of habeas corpus, the very cornerstone of the Constitution and Bill of Rights.

    The bill effectively eliminates the U.S. Constitution.

    Are you implying that you are an enemy combatant, a terrorist, or terrorist supporter?

    Admist the fear mongering op-ed with more opinion and rhetoric than fact:

    then goes on to say:

    Does anyone else appreciate the irony of this? :D

    I don't understand why pacificst liberals don't just open charities for terrorists. They seem perfectly willing to give them everything else.

    Are you implying you're an anti-American communist/hate monger, or do you just normally come off that way?

    Is there a reason you avoided the question by asking a question? Perhaps you are ashamed?

    Perhaps you're just confused (about a lot of things); the answer to your question is no. Did you expect something different? Answer my question: are you an anti-American communist/hate monger?

    Yes, I did expect something different. In addition to people who make up their own facts to blame America first with, I don't like communists either.

    It says 'suspected terrorist', not 'terrorist'. If you go to fbi.gov and read who they suspect of terrorism, included is anyone who didn't plead allegiance with our leader and anti-peace movement
    :(

    Just visited fbi.gov looking for this. As you can expect, I didn't find it. Since you know exactly where it is, how about a link to make your point valid?

    Where does one go to "plead allegiance with our leader?" DMV, Sears, iHop?

    "Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both"...

    We have been here before—and we have been here before, led here by men better and wiser and nobler than George W. Bush.

    We have been here when President John Adams insisted that the Alien and Sedition Acts were necessary to save American lives, only to watch him use those acts to jail newspaper editors.

    American newspaper editors, in American jails, for things they wrote about America.


    We have been here when President Woodrow Wilson insisted that the Espionage Act was necessary to save American lives, only to watch him use that Act to prosecute 2,000 Americans, especially those he disparaged as “Hyphenated Americans,” most of whom were guilty only of advocating peace in a time of war.

    American public speakers, in American jails, for things they said about America.


    And we have been here when President Franklin D. Roosevelt insisted that Executive Order 9066 was necessary to save American lives, only to watch him use that order to imprison and pauperize 110,000 Americans while his man in charge, General DeWitt, told Congress: “It makes no difference whether he is an American citizen—he is still a Japanese.”

    American citizens, in American camps, for something they neither wrote nor said nor did, but for the choices they or their ancestors had made about coming to America.

    Each of these actions was undertaken for the most vital, the most urgent, the most inescapable of reasons.

    And each was a betrayal of that for which the president who advocated them claimed to be fighting.

    It's good for people to be informed. You be surprised at how many want terrorists to succeed.

    We must all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately.

    Where do you hang, yo?

    It's funny how when it comes to "the rights of terrorists," only a certain group of people here suddenly seem to care about the Constitution.

    Why is it some people cannot just answer a question without going into full fledge moonbat assault?

    To answer the question...

    I've looked, and I cannot find any country that even comes close... The only ones that might are still all constitutional moncharchy's. While in principle their constitutions are similar the system of government, particulary the 3 parts in our own constitution are non-existent.

    Where were all of these moonbats when Bill Clinton's regime was murdering innocent men, women, and children in Idaho and Texas?

    But to answer your questions math20, as far as we have strayed from our original Constitution, we appear to still be the closest in principle to it. I've looked around the globe and have yet to find a better government, overall. Several countries have government which do some things better than ours, but the U.S. government is still the best overall.
