Probably should have been added to the 'me me me me me' thread. :D

yes, he has angered liberals in many ways.
He did waffle on gays in the military. he hasn't been the liberal wet dream he was billed. |

Assassinating US citizens with no due process is kinda high on my list.
What liberal (extreme left wing moonbats excluded) has Obama angered?

When I mentioned a similar concern to a co-worker they shrugged it off entirely under the excuse that "that will only happen to bad-guys" so us good citizens don't need to worry about it.
I just don't understand why so many people are so willing to give up their liberties, freedoms, and rights!
Oh wait, I'm starting to realize why because they have explained it to me so many times -- because they honestly believe that they can give away SOMEONE ELSE'S RIGHTS without it ever affecting their OWN rights.
So again I say, I just don't understand why so many people are so willing to give up their liberties, freedoms, and rights!

The only way to respond to somebody like that is to say, "Oh, well then, doubleplus good, Brother!", smile a very big artificial smile, and hope they get it.
