there is a documentary titled "Unconstitutional: The War" produced by Nonny de la Peņa which pretty much captures how profoundly our civil liberties have been subjugated in the aftermath of the September 11, 2001 attack on our people.  I'm of a divided opinion on the issue as there certainly have been historical precedence for these actions in other times of war but never has the gov't wielded so much power as it does in this information age.  I'm not a liberal by any stretch never the less de la Peņa's expose is thoughtfully done and makes very valid points.  catch it on the communist channel er sundance channel if you have any interest in the topic.

Why does,

observing: "civil liberties have been subjugated in the aftermath of the September 11, 2001 attack" = liberal

?

it doesn't necessarily but the slant/bias of the author is clear.  did you see the documentary?  furious (and others) if you aren't familiar with de la Peņa's work, there is "the whistleblower", "jaundiced eye" and "death on the job"  all of her stuff is critically acclaimed and quite compelling even though she is clearly a shill for the far left.  hell her work is underwritten by the ACLU.  what could possibly be more indicative of her bias than that?

I hope that they at least have some "real" investigations going on.

No, I haven't, but I understand better what you were saying now.

Are you saying the government set up McVeigh like they did these morons and just kinda missed the arrest?, I know some think that, I always found it a bit unbelievable..you surprise me.

Please explain what you mean by "setup". Is there some information you are privy to that has not already been publicised?

They were so poor that the FBI:

Bought them those dangerous boots, uniforms and even helped to rent the car so they could go take pics with the camera they bought for them.

It wasn't a setup, so quit saying that!

Nope, I am sure we have access to the same info, you think this was high quality police work?.

I'm sure that al-Quaeda hopes that this is an example our hard core investigative technique.

Stings are the lazy way out, wont catch the smart ones and I would think you would know that.

What better proof than this to show that Islamic terrorists, home grown or foreign, aren't the only terrorist threat to this country.

Incredible as it may seem, there's more evidence supporting THAT goofy theory than there is for those two dullard tools pulling it off.

Folks,
Point 1: Anybody that has ever read any of the Darwin Awards, or News of the Weird can figure out pretty quickly that MOST criminals (and terrorists) aren't too smart.  That doesn't mean that they aren't dangerous to innocent people.

If they got those idiots in Florida before they figured out how to mix ammonium nitrate and diesel fuel and take a truckload over to the sears tower, thats fine.  If they roped them because they were so blatantly stupid as to think a FBI guy was their AQ link, that just goes to prove point 1.  I think I'd rather have the FBI  or DHS out there roping these guys instead of watching headline news tell me about the bodycount and asking how the Bush administration could have failed to protect innocent lives.

I'm in the DC Area, where a couple of idiots (Malvo & Mohammed) with a gun running around shooting people from the trunk of their car caused a whole lot of trouble.  Not geniuses by any shake of the imagination, but a whole lot of innocent folks died nonetheless.

They might catch 100 shoe-bombers or idiots thinking they are talking to AQ about buying explosives before they catch 1 guy with the potential to really hurt a lot of innocent people, but I still want them out there trying to get that 1 really-nasty guy.
