Bush is chewing up the Constitution

Let's get this straight. The forth amendment to the Constitution (ratified on 12/15/1791) says,

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

How can the President take unilateral action to suspend any amendment to the Constitution? (http://www.star-telegram.com/national_news/story/563260.html) If your answer is that he has the right to do it, then you must also believe that he has the right to totally suspend the Constitution.

Don't try to justify his actions with that lame crap about us being at war. The only war we are involved in is one of his own making, and our involvement in Iraq and Afganistan are military actions, but not wars. Article 1 of the Constitution states that only Congress has the power "To declare War, grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water".

The events of 9/11 were criminal acts and not an act of war. I know this runs contrary to the dogma put out by the current administration, but go look at http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode of "act of war".

Bush is a President who should have been impeached and removed from office years ago. His "high crimes and misdemeanors" far exceed anything that Bill Clinton did (or had done to him). Why have we passively allowed this administration to drag our country down to the pitiful level that we now occupy in the world?

It's time to do something. And that "something" is NOT to elect anyone who proposes to continue on the path in the wilderness that we now find ourselves wandering, alone, in the dark.
