Disgusting how they fetishize "original intent" even as they work to dismantle it at every turn.

Yeah, but that's a conservative fetish all around the world. Often times it seems to me that 9/11 and the ensuing cut in civil liberties was a long held conservative dream come true. They always dreamt of knowing exactly what everybody's up to. Makes it easier to shit on citizen's heads without being cought in the process.

that's a terrifying desire to be controlled 24/7, much in line with the concept of the celestial voyeur known as god

it's scary anyone would want this, and even scarier that they could bring it to life

Yeah - as Doonesbury depicted in 2001.

They wasted no time taking advantage of a golden opportunity. Politicizing the deaths of 3,000 people .... one more reason to hate politicians of all stripes.  B aware, many, many Democrats too voted away some of our rights in order to be "more patriotic than thou."

As far as I know, all but one. But from my European perspective they're conservatives too. Many of the repubs on the other hand come over as some fascist/anarchist hybrid with a tendency for religious bigotry as the cherry on top.

But I'm speaking as a European. And here the conservatives are the main driving force behind cutting civil liberties in the name of fighting terror.

Well, the appeal to patriotism is a fallacy practiced by most all politicians I've ever seen.
