Obama used his ‘civil rights law professorship’ as a prop. Something to fool us with. Something to garner more votes. I can’t count on both hands how many times the US Constitution has been violated under his watch, at times with his full complicity. He cares about as much about ‘civil rights’ or ‘human rights’ as I do about lawn croquet. The whole thing is a con game. And Obama is the ringmaster. IMO he is the biggest flim-flam man since Elmer Gantry. In fact, Elmer would probably be embarrassed by his behavior!

Can we please find a way to blame this on president Obama?

I don’t understand how this trip complies with the foolish State Dept. travel ban to Cuba. Is there some exemption for groups doing “humanitarian” work there? Anyway, it sounds like Californians Building Bridges is a front group that provides cover for Anderson’s influence peddling. What legitimate reason would these legislators have for visiting Commie Island anyway? Maybe they are planning on using it as a role model for California.

Campaign financing in this country really needs a complete overhaul. Unfortunately, since today’s lawmakers benefit from the status quo – don’t EVER expect that to happen. I mean it’s so blatant ridiculous on it’s face. Laughable. How are we really any different from Mexico? Seriously?

It’s so stupid to make Cuba legally off limits to Americans. I thought we were the land of the free? Freedom also means freedom to travel. In fact, freedom to travel is the hallmark of freedom. If you don’t have freedom to travel to whereever you want – you’re really not free at all. But what’s even more absurd is that the lawmakers who are sworn under oath to uphold the laws are the first ones to get exemptions from these travel restrictions. If I wanted to go to Cuba (which I don’t, btw) and asked the gov for permission there’s a 99% chance they’d tell me to pound sand.

Today I learned that Snowden left the Moscow airport and apparently now has legal residence in Russia. Seems that Russia has turned into us and we have turned into Russia. Funny how that all works. And we spent how many trillions to dismantle the Soviet Union? Putin must be looking like the Cheshire cat. Of course if NSA wanted to fire Edward that’s their perogative and legal right. But espionage charges for alerting we Americans that our 4th Amendment rights were being violated? I think that’s a little over the line. Just my opinion FWIW.

Where have all the flowers gone, long time passing?
