Just a piece of paper
Kitt:
I believe the statement about "it's just a piece of paper" really happened, but it wasn't about the Constitution. Bush was talking about treasury bonds. I was shocked when I heard him on television, informing all our creditors like China/Europe, that our treasury bonds were "just a piece of paper".

Haven't I seen that exact same comment from you before? I mean the blog, blog thing? Did you just cut and paste from a previous posting? Please strive in the future to be original and cogent. You will be tolerated much more if you add to the conversation, even if your views are not our views (with apologies to all those who think I'm lumping us all into the same mindset and viewpoint).
Glenn:
Thanks again for hitting the refresh button on this subject. As far as I am concerned, this is the seminal issue in regards to our Constitutional rights. We should be demanding that our Senators and Congresspersons restore habeus.
Finally, to the commenter who suggested that words only go so far. What you left hanging in the air seems to say that the next step beyond words might be violence. Is that what you meant to say? My dad used to say that brawn may win the battle, but brains win the war. A lot of the problem is a mindset that says that there is nothing between words and violence. I don't believe those are our only choices.
