Senator Patrick Leahy: Habeas Corpus Rally

[The1926JIMBO]

put OBAMA in jail now too.

[UncleIrv]

Hey Patrick Leahy... GO FUCK YOURSELF.

[tbone76a]

Don't be gullible. This guy is a mind controller pervert. You have no idea. Stop being gullible.

[Davesthe1]

I wished he was my senator. I have always liked this Guy!

Banking establishments are more dangerous than standing armies. ~ Thomas Jefferson

[WarrenERock]

As a result of the war, corporations have been enthroned and an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money power will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until all the wealth is aggregated in a few hands and the republic is destroyed... God grant that my suspicions may prove groundless. ~ Abraham Lincoln, in a letter to Col. Wm. F. Elkins, Nov. 21, 1864.

[WarrenERock]

In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist... Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals, so that security and liberty may prosper together.

D. D. Eisenhower

January 17, 1961

Restore America - On 911 America was blindsided (Out of the Blue). As you know we have since went INTO THE BLACK. Our Constitution and way of life is Compromised and YOU have since been stripped of many of your Guaranteed Rights including the writ of Habeas Corpus. For More Info see YTVideo v=dslP59PrSVY Restore America! VOTE!

[davidchenard]

Loss of Writ is a lie!

Article 1, Section 9, Clause 2 - "The Privilege of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in cases of rebellion or invasion the public safety may require it."

Article 10 - "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."

The Unitied States government was not granted the power to suspend the Great Writ by the Constituion and has no such power.

Ask yourself how HE let the law pass in the first place. This man is evil. He's a lair. He is the one that makes the LAWS. CONGRESS makes the laws. He a slimy piece of garbage. HE ALLOWED THE HC! HIM not the President. HE is guilty.

[g699a]

Yours is a false notion. Except for ex-Americans who have enlisted with our enemies and have been captured on foreign fields of battle, the right of Habeas Corpus has not been suspended. At no time in history has the right of Habeas Corpus been extended to POWs. Stop tying our military's hands and try tying the hands of our enemies for once.

[kroses]

FALSE! Too many of our PHONY REPUBLICAN LEGISLATORS, and SCARED, SPINELESS DEMOCRATS, acted in haste to undo 200 years of Anglo-American law in an enabling act to the COWARD BUSH! He is the one who is destroying our country like no terrorist could ever do!

[helldamnguy]

A true american hero and our last vanguard for freedom and liberty. How I love and will soon miss our dear Patrick Leahy...we heard you not

[Flohoff]

If we want Constitutional Government than we have to vote Ron Paul 2008 this election. You Tube Ron Paul

Meetup Ron Paul

[khc12]

We need to elect a Democrat for President and also rid the Congress of those Repubicans who refuse to follow the COnstitution.

[kinumedo]

I wish you were our President Mr. Leahy.

[atwitsend]

CONtempt OF CONgress

CHARGE SHOULD HAVE BEEN FILED THIS MORNING

[atwitsend]

Craig Hill told you years ago about the treasonous 911. have you forgotten. We haven't. if you had stopped it then we wouldn't be in this fix. you saw it coming as we did.

[vlhamilton]

There is almost nothing good left in our government that this criminal bunch has not either damaged or destroyed! The American people must rise up and demand that their representatives impeach them. We need an entire Congress filled with people like Senator Leahy! "If the people will lead, the leaders will follow!"

[debra1953]

hes the man.we need more like him

[robinkeyster]

Wow, a politician saying things I believe in! What a concept. Neocons listen up, Your reign of terror is coming to an end. Impeach Cheney/Bush. Bring liberty and justice for all back to US.

[vtstream]

Go Pat! We are proud of you! Thank You for standing up to the insanity of the Bush Administration.

[treehugger1023]

Thank you Patrick Leahy! Please support closing Guantanamo, restore habeus corpus. Vote Kucinich for President!

[BobCubTAC]

It's amazingly and unfortunately sad that we even have to have this discusssion today. Restoring the writ of habeus corpus...really, Neocons!!! See what you have done to our country???

[Scarpia2001]

If you want to see true patriotism in action, watch this.

[mctommy6659]

Vermonters are very proud of him. He has done such a great job imposing accountability on President Cheney and his pet rock Bushee. He, Jim Jeffords, Bernie Sanders and Peter Welch are the R's worst nightmare

[nan3663]

I Love Patrick Leahy, he is a great man, one of the few left.
