I mean hell, the Arizona law is completely against the 4th Amendment, and the Right loved it. Forcing people to keep their IDs on them at all times.

Go right ahead. Tell us how the Right would "protect" the constitution.
I am sure I understand that the Right likes the 2nd Amendment, and the 10th Amendment because you know, guns and states rights and all, but far as I can see, the Right, hates individual constitutionally protected Rights.

The House has the power to create a budget. While it doesn't really matter, the Senate may be the upper house, it is no more important than the House. Either way, I think it's nice that many people got passionate and involved, but neither party is the friend of the people. The illusion of choice has kept this country in check for a long time, as well as the coverage of hot button issues by the mass media, allowing for an inflammation of the left/right paradigm. Our two party system has been bought and paid for by MNCs. The class gap is widening and wealth is being consolidated at the top. There is too much going on for the average American to understand in their limited attention span during the election season. The only way this country is going to change is through education and activism. People need to take a vested interest in their government, since we inherited it from those who came before us, and it is our responsibility to pass it on in the same pristine condition. Sadly, we are failing in that charge.
And why are you against being able to prove who you are if the law comes knocking?

If the law doesn't have a warrant, it's not my freaking problem. They can go to hell for all I am concerned. That's the power of the 4th Amendment. But the Right HATES the 4th Amendment because it also protects LEGAL (not a typo) LEGAL immigrants from illegal searches and seizures and to be secure in their personal papers and effects.

Aww, did I hurt your feelings?
After the way people rip into Pelosi on here, I'm entitled to rip into Boehner.
Get used to it.

Was it really necessary to make that dig at Democrats?
Geez. I've just about had it with this place. It's REDSTATE!
