depends on the recision acts af has basically made it through congress
they've got agreement on it and uh... it
what it does is it allows for indefinite detentions
of uh...
any combatants the military gets inside was in any combatant
and it it operates on u_s_ soil and can apply to american citizens so it's
horrible
it destroys the pit on the fourteenth amendments and
uh...
positron italicized comes appear on and that means
the military can act within the united states at plus it really goes to the
foundation of western law in questioning habeas corpus and congress as weak just
told you has a grade
but president obama was threatening a veto and we were at least happy that
president obama was on that side of the issue
but some people have been dissenting voices
including john one of change dot org say no way to the president's objecting
uh... to uh... section ten thirty-two of this bill not ten thirty one
that is the portion about that apply to the united states citizens on u_s_ soil
et cetera
so you're giving him credit for the wrong things in fact when greenwald
at salon has also written about that and saying
the presidential wants more power not less power
and his veto threat is not something
that is not a protector of civil liberties
well uh... those are all interesting theories until summer carl levin away on
the floor congress
told us at least
based on what he's saying here
if he's telling the truth
date back present all bomb up
it to be the exact opposite not that he thought it had too much power in the
bill but they said it should have more power
let's let carl levin expo the administration
ask us to remove the language
the u_s_ citizens in local residents
would not be subject to this initiative the senator familiar with the fact that
with the administration
dances to remove
the remain with which we had in the bill which passed the committee
and that we were moved at the request of the administration
that would have said the act at this
determination would not apply
u_s_ citizens and lawful residence
that's an eleven is a guy who crafted that uh... portion of the bill
and if he sell if your theory saying present a llama came in and said no no
i want to make this bill even
he wouldn't put it this way i would even worse
even more of an abuse of civil liberties by making sure that i can also
indefinitely detain united states citizens
that's the worst part of a bill
if senator levin is right about what happened there
then president bomb artist
again not on the right side of this issue is on the wrong side of the issue
and everyone knew the veto threat so they could have more power dot less
power
and abuse our constitutional and civil liberties
more not less
well adding that's so disappointing that are i can't take it anymore
i mean ari so what does that mean that i can create a new c_d_ criticize
president obama over and over again
southern shy about that
it's that if this is true
iowa's literally goes to the point of supporting president obama
i'm not
mincing words i don't see the point
and somebody will have to try to figure out
you know our guest go ahead and try to convince me write comments on this
females for the young turks dot com
it participate through current dot com slash three on purpose
you tell me once was about to start but if you really burst so called
constitutional law professor has such little respect for our constitution that
is when the show i don't like that
he is in some ways he's worse than a republican
covers what ivy newt gingrich is a danger to the republican right
is newt gingrich in a proposed something worse
then indefinitely detainee american citizen not a trial
i'm not sure i can think of anything worse
isn't it will probably store do something worse than
kill united states citizens abroad without a trial
a president bob as that was
drone strikes
our mesh i can imagine something worse
so and then but
really harmful part of president obama's heat totally
gets unfortunately a large portion of the lapd to stand out
if president bush
put this bill ford but left one of the nl
peacebuilding c
outside of our show countdown people like glenn greenwald and a couple other
shows
not flying
mainstream media of course is as always is oblivious till it once jerry's you
doing
handle having president carter but this
or even knowing that there is some outrage behind it
and then what
are the activist warns the left of where the democrats
you know our frank in both of us
what that was the point of setting up in the senate
are you kidding
big got our constitution like this
and the president bob in our own tough day up with it
democratic silver approval on a separate shop stand-down unless he wants to
happen with the right wing wants to do
and destroy our civil liberties
well that is of no use
that he doesn't help the country that's the country
low commanders in iraq to show if i got it wrong
you tell me you you show me at all please o'connor would week sauce
stuff about how
although no but you don't understand congress' won't mourned we couldn't get
the august well you senator levin if he's going through
saying no no you what the congress
and said you're not right away dot engines all right way
and second of all when bush was in charge congress in majorities didn't
have the jury ever did everything in water
back on the president was incredibly strong now you're gonna get you to
believe the president incredibly weak it has a new everything the republicans
salmonella
now he wants to do it
that's what makes me particularly sick
let's hope the senator levin is a liar
but i don't think so it doesn't look like it at the moment being
