With you on much the same things.
Have called, written, and petitioned everyone from my state legislators to my Congresspeople, the President, and the FCC and the Justice Department on everything from net neutrality to Guantanamo, and donated a shitload of money to everything from Amnesty International to PEER (Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility).. in other words, to whistleblowers and groups exercising/ supporting the exercise of political freedoms.
That's not counting my environmental and humanitarian efforts.. but another story for another thread.

I've been assured for years that America does not torture.
Are you now saying that we torture people?

I take issue with several of these statements. Even your own article traces this back to Bush...Quote:Was Obama President in 2000??
The FBI alone has issued more than 300,000 NSLs since 2000.
Also, the left is not giving Obama a pass. If you think that, then you clearly don't know what the left is saying, so here are few of today's headlines to acquaint you with news from that direction:.
I wasn't talking about Pres. Obama. The article I cited was mostly about the Attorney General's failings.
How do you feel about AG Holder?

Actually, the article kinda spews in all directions ... Obama, Holder, Democrats specifically, and leftists in general. So, you want to change the direction of the discussion? Does this mean that you've given up on the idea of pursuing Democrats, left-wingers in general and Obama specifically?
Just, yanno, to be clear on the subject of the discussion, so when it doubles back (and it will) to Obama, Democrats, leftists and whoever else, it will be clear.

To answer your question- I find Holder to be a very dangerous person. I'm not sure if it's more than Ashcroft (Patriot Act) and Gonzales (torture) or about the same. What I HAVE found is that Holder is pursuing further the very same path laid out by the previous AGs. The most troubling rationalization is the idea that "due process is not judicial process". So Star Chamber proceedings... one of the very things that the FF thought they had eliminated... have been rationalized back into existence. IMHO, Ashcroft and Gonzales should have been impeached, and Holder is right up there with them. Since Ashcroft and Gonzales are no longer AGs, maybe they can be tried for treason? After all, did they not swear to uphold and defend the Constitution? Then three of them can sit in Federal prison together, as a fine example of how NOT to be AG.

Or they could be executed for treason if found guilty...

Speaking of fundraising, I heard that Trump is getting more campaign donations than he ever did before, and he hasn't even announced he's running yet.
Unless you count that video he dropped right after the Democrats raided his house, which was obviously a campaign ad.
