House And Senate Defecates On The US Consitution

Well the Senate did it. It passed a bill that legalizes spying on Americans by private corporations.

What I refer to is the Telecom Immunity Bill.

This bill gives the Telecom corporations immunity from prosecution for unknown crimes that may or may not have committed and for future crimes that they have not yet committed.

It gives them permission to listen in on and record our communications.

It places these corporations above and beyond the US Constitution and the Rule of Law.

Though the House and Congress has been making it clear for years now that the Rule of Law is only for little people and not politicians, banks and corporations, this legislation specifically codifies their position.

As time goes on, we should see more legislation of this kind, exempting corporations being bound by the laws that should be applied equally to all.

Our masters have spoken. Laws are for the little people. They are not bound by the US Constitution or Laws derived thereof. They will do as they please, and there is nothing we can do about it.

This is just the beginning.

Update:

Most of us now know that Senator Hillary Clinton didn't even bother to show up for the vote.

I've heard the argument that the vote was lost anyway, so there was no point in trying. I vehemently disagree with this argument.

And I disagree because she took an Oath.

I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.

And when the US Constitution needed her, she put her own personal ambitions ahead of the US Constitution and ahead of the country.

If she will break her Most Solemn Oaths as Senator, then she'll break them as a President.

Yesterday she demonstrated that she will break Oaths and refuse to defend her country in it's hour of need. In her capacity as Senator, she has deserted her post when it really mattered.

Senator Obama on the other hand stayed for the full vote, and voted for the US Constitution and against giving corporations that commit Federal Crimes, immunity from prosecution.

McCain voted to defecate on the US Constitution. He cast his vote in favor of exempting the Telecom Corporations from the Rule of Law. And he won his battle against the US Constitution.

I don't really like Obama, Hillary or McCain, but now I have a compelling reason to cast a vote for Obama, rather than the traitors that oppose him in this race.

The Republicans work to get votes and they show up to get their agendas passed. The Democrats worry that they might lose, so they give up and don't even bother to show. Obama just demonstrated that he's not a Chicken Shit Democrat.

Hillary can go back to Arkansas.
