You folks have kept silent or cheered this Administration on as they have done the following things, thing that, at one time, would have been condemned by previous administrations if another country had done them:
Wiretaps without warrants.
Warrantless searches.
Fishing through financial records.
Detentions of citizens without trial.
Declining to obey the law.
Stating that the executive is above the law.
The use of torture.
Prosecutions of political enemies.
Asking neighbors to spy on each other.
Then, there are the garden-variety things:
No-bid contracts to political supporters.
Massive deficit spending.
Massive expansions of the reach of the Federal government.
Salting the government with no-talent cronies.
You've supported Bush at every turn. Will you be so supportive of these things in 2009, if a Democrat is elected President? Or will you all of a sudden have a instant conversion and then, and only then, start railing about the importance of the Constitution and the rule of law?
Will you stand to your convictions and support giving all those powers to a Democratic president or will you show yourself to be a world-class hypocrite?
Or will you stand up, now, and join the chorus of those who oppose the Constitution-destroying policies of the Bush Administration, while there is still time for you to regain your honor?
When will you admit that there is something wrong with this country?
And when will you admit that part of the fault that freedom and liberty are being besieged by this government is yours?
