The liberties have not been lost, they have been compromised. That is the danger flag.

>>>>>>>>>

What "liberties" have been compromised in your humble opinion?

And no dodging this tackle because It is more important for me to respect who I am than it is for you to like me.

You clearly don't see things my way and that is fine. I do expect good behavior from you in any case.

You bring up the courts.. Do you feel that the court judgements are the highest law?
We don't have a Republican Congress anymore, do we? So where's all the talk of Impeachment these days? Surely it's going to happen, no? No wait, we haven't heard ONE SINGLE WORD ABOUT IMPEACHMENT this past month, have we? Hmmmm... I wonder why.

And as for liberties - thank you for admitting that you have NOT lost ANY personal or civil liberties of any kind. And saying that they've been "compromised" is just a silent way of admitting that you're wrong.

The courts? What about them? Are you going to tell me that there are not hundreds - even thousands - of "rulings" that are made, over-ruled, revisited, over-turned and re-examined on a DAILY basis?

And by the way, it was not ME who brought up the courts. That was YOU.

I assume she agrees with you about that, as she has not given any examples of "liberties" that have been compromised.

Unless she means that Americans are forbidden from gambling on the internet and visiting Cuba

"Gay Marriage Sub-Forum Closing" withdrawls? I understand they can be a KILLER!

Why not go play somewhere else.
