You answered your question for me, because he's done more, lots more. Extended detention without charge is wrong, but I continue to support President Obama despite the fact that I am strongly opposed to such a policy. Just as I continue to support and participate the cellar despite the fact that you hang out here.

Why are you tearing down the rule of law?

Ignoring the law just because it's inconvenient, or uncomfortable or because you're ignorant *IS* tearing down the rule of law. I know details aren't your long suit, the fact is, saying you trust their legal system then suggest you'd prefer kidnapping and extraordinary rendition makes you a hypocrite.

I am completely comfortable with that. Even if it makes you uncomfortable and wants to make you drink to excess.
