Huh? What straw man? I don't think you know what that phrase means. My comment was very pointed and it specifically addressed your hypocrisy. There was no dodge or irrelevant reference.

Holy crap!
Quote from Hog's Wikipedia Articale: "A straw man is a dummy in the shape of a human usually made up entirely out of straw material, or created by stuffing straw into clothes. Straw men are commonly used as scarecrows, combat training targets, swordsmiths' test targets, effigies to be burned, and as rodeo dummies to distract bulls." I have been in quite a few rodeo's in my day... never once knew I was a straw man...

![]() I didn't say it would become law. I said that the Obama Administration wanted it, and, further, that it was a violation of the Constitution. |

Then why did Obama vote for the FISA bill? I think it's you all who have the problem with a short memory.

George Washington
“Should any American soldier be so base and infamous as to injure any [prisoner]. . . I do most earnestly enjoin you to bring him to such severe and exemplary punishment as the enormity of the crime may require. Should it extend to death itself, it will not be disproportional to its guilt at such a time and in such a cause… for by such conduct they bring shame, disgrace and ruin to themselves and their country.” - John McCain "The enemy we fight has no respect for human life or human rights. They don't deserve our sympathy. But this isn't about who they are. This is about who we are. These are the values that distinguish us from our enemies, and we can never, never allow our enemies to take those values away."
