And precisely where did I ever say otherwise?
But be fair. The Bush administration trampled our rights far more thoroughly than Obama has (of course, he had more time than Obama has had so far), a McCain administration would likely have trampled them at least as much as Obama's administration has had HE become president, and Romney is likely to be just another case of "New Boss; same as the Old Boss" should he win the election.
And, finally, nothing you said there has ANYTHING to do with the Supreme Court.

That would be fine, provided they were
arrested on an equal basis. But you and I know that - all other things being equal - you're more likely to get arrested if you're a young black male than if you're an upper class white female. In which case you can bet someone is going to holler race or sexual discrimination as a result of this - probably even before the election.
Also if they were arrested for similar reasons; but somehow I don't think someone arrested for smoking pot or drinking in public deserves the same treatment as someone arrested for murdering his wife and family.
Dare to be different... and make a difference.
