Would our elected officials today allow a roundup of innocent white or black Americans as they rounded up innocent Asian Americans during World War II? Yes. A few days ago, on a voice vote, the U.S. Senate voted 93-7 for S. 1867, which even its supporters such as Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said would extend the “battleground” and that everyday Americans could be detained by the military and held indefinitely without having to be charged with a crime. (link) Forbes on-line magazine published an article headlined, “The National Defense Authorization Act is the Greatest Threat to Civil Liberties Americans Face” (link) After this treasonous vote, Rand Paul (R-KY) called for a roll call vote, which would give American voters a record of how their senators voted. Only then did a majority of the Senate vote against the bill. In short, 93 out of 100 senators voted for a bill that would suspend the Bill of Rights, until Rand Paul placed his fellow senators in a position of having their votes recorded for their constituents to know which of them had committed treason. americanactionreport.blogspot/2011/12/whats-this-about-fema-camps-primer.html
