Emerging briefly, in horror...

...at the demolition of a key plank of the Bill of Rights; a thing I truly believed could not come to pass, the assaults on liberty of the past few years notwithstanding.

Well, I was wrong; and Obama's failure to veto and at least make good on that threat mean, I think, that I am done with one of the very few politicians to whom I ever gave actual cash. I'm sad in a small way for that, and in a much bigger way for the erosion of the U.S. constitution, a document with many flaws but several world-changing virtues.
