Goodbye Constitution of the US. You served us well.

I now am fully convinced that the "War on Terror" is a tool to keep us in a "State of Emergency". I mean terrorists have NEVER had the capability of hijacking airplanes before 2001 and the George W. Bush administration.

We have lost so many small, but important rights in the past seven years. Now the big guns are coming out. We the people are unimportant at this juncture. That's what we get for a few decades of reliance on the government tit, and (paraphrasing Thomas Jefferson) not tending to our freedoms.

I'll leave you with a few quotes from people who saw this coming a long time before anyone reading this was born:

"Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty." - Thomas Jefferson

"They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." - Benjamin_Franklin

"A society of sheep must in time beget a government of wolves." - Bertrand_de_Jouvenel
