Foreign interventionism and adventurism not only costed us precious much blood, bankrupt our economy, it took away our liberty to the level unseen in American history. When in our history each and everyone was subjected to search without any due process ? The principal of innocent unless proved quilty was upside down as guilty unless proved innocent. Even in Eastern Bloc never such thing happened in Cold War time.

Bolded part is not even close to true. Communist nations went on massacring rampages the likes of which Americans can't begin to imagine, spied on their own people more than any society ever in world history and if you disagreed with the government, you either kept your mouth shut or you disappeared and were never seen or heard from again.

The rest of it is 100% true.

Godof,
"each and everyone was subjected to search without any due process." did not happen even in Eastern Bloc. I mean that all security search here since 911. I stand for what I said , please argue with facts, not your impression.
