Civil Liberties

Although the Democrats have made little noises about the erosion of “liberties” that come as a consequence of the legislation passed to create Homeland Security, and all that entails, the truth of the matter is that they absolutely love the new controls this will give them over the population. Expect to see even greater abuses of power over the sovereignty of the people under the Democrats. The irony will be that they can use the excuse, conveniently provided by the bumbling Republicans, that they are being “strong for America”. The only departure in this arena will be the opening of our borders, as a sign that we are loving and caring and would never want to offend anyone by shutting them out.
