NaturalNews) The mainstream media doesn't want you to know about this story even though it is arguably the single most important story of the year in terms of impacting your future as a free citizen. Yesterday as part of the National Defense Authorization Act, the U.S. Senate voted to repeal the Constitution and its Bill of Rights by authorizing the U.S. military to operate on U.S. soil, conduct secret kidnappings of American citizens and throw them in secret military prisons where they will be "legally" tortured, interrogated and murdered.
All that is required for this to take place is the allegation that you are somehow linked to something resembling "terrorism." There is no due process and no evidence whatsoever required. And this is all being give the thumbs up by the traitorous U.S. Senate, led by Republicans like Sen. John McCain who should know a thing or two about secret prisons.
Scroll all the way down for the full list of traitorous senators who voted this in.
The bill was going to be even worse:
Quote:
The Senate last night attempted to pass an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act that would have allowed Americans to be detained even if they had been found not guilty by a trial.
Paul Craig Roberts called the Republican Party the Gestapo Party; rounding you up and hauling your sorry aSs away to wherever they feel like taking you for as long as they want you to stay there. Good times.

Anyone want to place bets on whether or not we'll see Mr.PFnVA get on his soapbox and give the whole self righteous "sewing pregnant womens' legs closed" speech when a group of republicans have been likened to nazi?
Or do we think his sanctimony only applies when a liberal is called a nazi?

LOL!
Do you actually see the Third Reich as a left-wing regime? Is this where you pretend the Nazi party was liberal? Or do you concede that they were right wing extremists, and are just perverting language like all cons eventually have to do?
One or the other please.

As your post shows we also get sanctimony when a conservative is called a Nazi.

Of course the nazi party was liberal, they were national socialists, but that's beside the point. You obviously don't have the first clue what my point is, so please stop from futher embarassing yourself.

Your post makes no sense; I haven't displayed any sanctimony at the republicans (once again) being likened to nazis. I haven't really given any opinion of it at all.
I'm just calling out one of this forum's leading liberals who got really really upset at the term nazi being used in here recently. I look forward to his scathing condemnation of the remarks in OP's article.
Funny you define this as a strictly partisan issue, Carl Levin is the Chairman of the committee (one of the biggest libs in congress) that produce this amendment in secret (McCain was the ranking minority member of the committee.
They tried to pass this by a voice vote, of course that can't happen without the approval of H Reid who controls the Senate. This was stopped by Rand Paul and another Republican.
The bill was drafted in secret by Senators Carl Levin (D-Mich.) and John McCain (R-Ariz.), before being passed in a closed-door committee meeting without any kind of hearing. The language appears in sections 1031 and 1032 of the NDAA bill.
....
This means Americans could be declared domestic terrorists and thrown in a military brig with no recourse whatsoever. Given that the Department of Homeland Security has characterized behavior such as buying gold, owning guns, using a watch or binoculars, donating to charity, using the telephone or email to find information, using cash, and all manner of mundane behaviors as potential indicators of domestic terrorism, such a provision would be wide open to abuse.
The second paragraph are behaviors assigned typically to conservatives BTW
Republican Congressman Justin Amash called the provision of the bill, “one of the most anti-liberty pieces of legislation of our lifetime,” adding that the language had been “carefully crafted to mislead the public” in that the proposed law “does not preclude U.S. citizens from being detained indefinitely, without charge or trial, it simply makes such detention discretionary.”
Amash has been joined in his opposition to the bill by Kentucky Senator Rand Paul, who has introduced an amendment to strike Section 1031 from the legislation altogether. When Paul confronted McCain on the provision earlier this week, McCain confirmed that it would apply to American citizens accused of being terrorists.
Paul and Amash are Tea Party caucus members, btw, so you can thank the Tea Party for protecting American's freedom.
“The President should not have the authority to determine whether the Constitution applies to you, no matter what the allegations,” Amash said. “Please urge your Senators to oppose these outrageous provisions.”
Although the bill says “the requirement to detain a person in military custody under this section does not extend to citizens of the United States,” Amash said the language is “carefully crafted to mislead the public.
“Note that it does not preclude U.S. citizens from being detained indefinitely, without charge or trial, it simply makes such detention discretionary,” he wrote.
Quote:
Thankfully, Republican Senator Rand Paul discovered the provision and was able to request a last ditch roll call vote. The amendment was eventually defeated by a worryingly narrow final vote of 41-59.
Forget Kafkaesque, the very fact that the Senate even attempted to enact a law that would put the likes of Stalinist North Korea to shame speaks volumes about the contempt that lawmakers have for the bill of rights.
....
On Thursday night, Senator Rand Paul blocked passage of an amendment that would have allowed the government to indefinitely detain American citizens until Congress declares the War on Terror to be over. These Americans would be detained even if they were tried and found not guilty.
An attempt was made to pass Amendment No. 1274 to the National Defense Authorization Act (S. 1867) by voice vote, but Senator Paul’s objection and request for a roll call vote ultimately led to the bill’s defeat by a final vote of 41-59.
Thankfully this was defeated. As I frequently say the government shouldn't be given so much power. This is part of the problem with Obamacare, the Feds are saying they can force you to buy a product, that is outrageous.
BTW there was at least 1 network that spoke out against this amendment ....
Fox news.

Can the president use the military to arrest anyone he wants, keep that person away from a judge and jury, and lock him up for as long as he wants? In the Senate’s dark and terrifying vision of the Constitution, he can.
Congress is supposed to work in public. That requirement is in the Constitution. It is there because the folks who wrote the Constitution had suffered long and hard under the British Privy Council, a secret group that advised the king and ran his government.
We know from the now-defunct Super Committee, and other times when Congress has locked its doors, that government loves secrecy and hates transparency. Transparency forces the government to answer to us. Secrecy lets it steal our liberty and our property behind our backs.

They were National SOCIALIST, they weren't national conservatives. They had similar industrial interventionist policies as the current administration.
VonMises had to leave Europe in the 30 he identified them as Socialist contemporaneously. Why rewrite history to fit your prejudices and projection. Most of the mass murder in the 20th century was carried out by leftist governments with centralized power.
