    What you’re talking about is wielding government power against a political opponent. These examples are not analogous. Give me a true analogy of democrats going outside of norms and traditions to undermine their political rivals.

      Either Democracy Is At Stake or it isn’t. If you’re willing to unleash the full power of the federal government on some anti-war activists and civil rights marchers, but you balk at employing the same methods on billionaire real estate magnets and their financiers, I’m forced to assume it isn’t democracy you’re trying to defend.

      Guantanamo Bay is both figuratively and literally outside of US norms and traditions. PRISM is outside our norms and traditions. The illegal arms sales to Israel are outside our norms and traditions. I can keep going.

        Lol, cutting off the last half of that sentence when it’s right fucking there is hilarious.

        Can’t take you seriously, sorry. Shape up, maybe someday you’ll have a fully developed mind.
