    giving the government authority to label anyone 'terrorist' or enemy combatant, not subject to rights afforded to people, is giving a central government way more power than the founders ever intended.
    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

    i am not so sure of that

    remember the whiskey rebellion and its subsequent impact that has morphed into the war on drugs

    drugs are just to easily transported in small quantities, or even larger quantities

    generally speaking though, the central government does usurp too much control, but if not the feds, then who, we would not have civil rights if it were not for the feds and the reps have been and still are doing their bet to subvert them - too often with the help of conservative dems
