Rep. Bachmann Explains Why Bush-era Terror Policy is Unjust

She's worried now that the same tactics that were used by the Bush administration might be used against her, and all of a sudden finds herself sounding like the ACLU.

Her specific fears aren't justified, but it'd be great if she realizes that's why progressives didn't want that kind of shit being done in the first place.

As things stand right now, there's no functioning system of checks and balances to prevent Obama from doing what she's describing, specifically because morons like her helped Bush and the Republicans dismantle them.

I hope she realizes that at some point.

MCA of 2006 anyone?
now THAT piece of legislation was an abomination.
as for all the hoopla about DHS director's mention of the possibility of returning veterans becoming extremists,she was just doing her job.
defining all possible threats,foreign and domestic,and possible outcomes,is her job.the report taken in context is not offensive.
cherry-pick this little nugget and BOOM...its news.
no...its not.
it's being used as a political sledgehammer to push a narrative that if looked at closely...does not exist.
once again the media fails to give the public contextual reporting and politicians jump on the bandwagon to further their own political agenda.
in the end,its always the common man who pays the price for this kind of
gross,manipulative pandering.

"Ahem"

"Now that our blatantly discriminatory rules are pointing back at us, we don't like them any more."

/invoke memories of returning veterans to try and sway the argument with emotive logic.

This twit is so tied up in her bullshit I don't think she get's the fact that she looks like a nutjob to anyone who's not a nutjob.
