11-30-11 4 - Indefinite Detention? with Raha Wala - Countdown with Keith Olbermann

[oellerich007]

1:38 Obama Administration Objects? But yet he signs into law on New Years Eve...

[MiniRtist]

@oellerich007 Congress passed it with a veto-proof margin. So if you're angry at anyone, be angry at them. President Obama signed NDAA, but with a signing statement, and serious reservations.

Why does this have no views? This seems like the worst thing that could ever happen in America.

[SplookBlook]

@urabusxrw04 and now it IS the worst thing.

[KimInLosAngeles]

So far (Dec. 13), Keith Olbermann & Judge Andrew Napolitano are only ones who reported NDAA.

I haven't seen anybody else on 3 major networks (CNN, Fox Clown Channel or "Bend Over" MSNBC) reporting this.

Keith was the first one who reported Occupy Wall Street since it began.

His protege, Rachel Maddow of "Bend Over" MSNBC, reported OWS almost 3 weeks after.

I repect Keith as a REAL journalist.

This is #1 important news in the US.

Shame on all the other TV talking heads for ignoring this.

[MydirtyRat1]

read SB 1867, section D line section 1032 lines 17-20. it says "The requirement to detain a person in military custody under this section does not extend to citizens of the United States."

[Immellocker]

@MydirtyRat1 so it says that a us military-leader, doing wrong can not be detained?? like many of the political leaders, which have military post in the gov ;)

[starspeckledeyes]

what ever happened to innocent until proven guilty...?

[MeetMyMeatBE]

@starspeckledeyes It's now guilty until proven innocent.

[lerch25]

@MeetMyMeatBE It goes further than that, guilt and innocence no longer matter even rhetoricaly.

[cmdebord]

What is this country coming to? Good to know there are people who call it like they see it (ahem- Fox "News"). Thanks for reporting on the issue Keith. Raha way to represent!!!!

[JonHung]

Raha *swoon*

[Fogbats]

The question I would pose to these senators is, "What's wrong with arresting and trying those accused of being terrorists or associating with terrorist organizations for the crimes they're accused of like we always have?"

Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

[kianoosh5]

Raha for president

[27wyldryd]

I know Raha! Way to go Raha very impressive...

[justjulie37]

If Obama does not veto this, I will not vote for him in 2012

[TheLulzing]

@justjulie37 he's going to so we have hope

[dalecs47]

I have a better idea, seriously: Pass the law and then declare George Bush, Dick Chaney, Bill O’Rielly, Glen Beck, Rush Limbaugh and about 1000 Wall Street bankers and wheeler dealers “enemies of the State”. Arrest them, throw them in prison without charges or trial and leave them there to rot. Those people have done far more to destroy our American way of life and our freedoms then all the terrorists combined. Conservatives want tyranny, let’s give it to them.

[lerch25]

@dalecs47 I dont like those people either but, how could you fail to notice that the vast majority of democratic senators, I mean even Al Franken voted for this!

[MrYadakun]

I wonder who will be America's first President for Life.

[shughes428]

Am I the only one this scares?

[Suzaku000]

@shughes428

No. I can make a house with the bricks I shat.

My question is who came up with this bill?

[bragawave]

This is OUTRAGEOUS!!!  Excellent report on the subject!
