Comical Republican(+Lieberman) Anti-Constitution Quote Machine Going Full Speed
It's hard to pick out the best neocon quote so far about how we should treat theFarmville Bomber[wrong one; never listening to HuffPo/people linking to major HuffPo page again] an American citizen. Joe Lieberman is suggesting we change the Constitution, maybe, for citizens that are "affiliated with foreign terrorist organizations." Well, the thought of Joe Lieberman no longer having constitutional rights is quite tempting.
But this line from Peter King probably wins the year: "Did they Mirandize him? I know he's an American citizen but still." YAH BUT STILL!
Contrast it withthisstatement: "[Shahzad] has all the rights under the Constitution. We don't shred the Constitution when it is popular. We do the right thing." That's fucking Glenn Beck .
