I Think Those Who Have

The Main Thing I Say On War Is That We Need To Obey The Law And Formally Declare War.

Our Intervention To Destabilize The Assad Regime Has Really Made The Chaos Worse In Syria. And If You Were To Get Rid Of Assad Today, I Would Actually Worry About The 2 Million Christians That Are Protected By Assad.

When You Couple This Militarization Of Law Enforcement With An Erosion Of Civil Liberties And Due Process That Allows The Police To Become Judge And Jury - National Security Letters, No-knock Searches, Broad General Warrants, Pre-conviction Forfeiture - We Begin To Have A Very Serious Problem On Our Hands.
