Do you know that your hidden taxes will be a huge burden on you already from what bush did ? Now obama will make bush look like a beginner.

Why not open your mind and do research . You will pay extra tax on phone bills, power , groceries to cover their tax , apparel , everything you touch and even air you breathe will be taxed .tags ,drivers license already doubled .

And if your an illegal then after the third world nations have all been brought here you will be no better off than before you came. Only at least you can go home, WE CAN'T .

The silent majority, LOL! Where have we heard that before? Oh, it was Tricky Dick!

What they should say is no representation without taxation.

I heard 4500 buses from all across the country are heading for D.C. Do you think anyone will notice? Not many from here will!

I am still unclear on the details of the Constitution rights the OBAMA ADMINISTRATION has take from me. I am aware that the Bushistas removed Habeas Corpus for one but that was done by them to protect us from "terrorists".

I can still write anything, within decency and the rules, on this board. I can still own and carry a gun where appropriate. I can still drive anywhere I want. I can still talk to whom ever will listen. What rights have I lost? Details please.

As far as the currency is concerned I believe that dollars are a unit of transaction only. They are only a method of conducting transactions. So long as my mortgage holder takes dollars in payment and I can buy food and fuel I really do not care what the “absolute value” of the dollar happens to be.

I'm still in the dark as to what rights people think are being "taken away"...any more than previous presidents. To enable posters to clarify their position, here is a link:

I have seen this before...If someone does point out how the Constitution is, and has been for a long time, just a piece of paper that Congress wipes their *ss with, the left here will simply start by reinterpreting it anyway. They will, as usual, imply that "general welfare" is pro Socialist and/or Communist in nature. They will, as usual, use the commerce clause to justify the effective repeal of the 10th Ammendment. They will turn a blind eye to the specific statement, "but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States". They will deny that...well, if you are really that confused, start another thread. That topic is one that is as broad as is as the power of the Federal Godvernment today.

Me too? I know my rights were severely infringed upon under Bush with that fantastic work of art, The Patriot Act. As far as I can tell, they are all still pouting because they lost the election.
