Goodbye American Bill of Rights

New Year's Eve marks the anniversary of President Obama's signing into law of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). NDAA was passed overwhelmingly by both Republicans and Democrats in both chambers of Congress. The NDAA gives the US government the authority and the ability to detain any American citizen for any reason. This violates just about every Amendment to our Bill of Rights. With few exceptions, no one in either the Republican or Democratic parties are talking about this blatant violation of
 the Constitution and our civil liberties. President Obama campaigned in 2008 promising to reverse the loss of civil liberties during the Bush Administration (USA Patriot Act, Military Commissions Act of 2006, etc), but he has instead continued and expanded upon what Bush did. Neither party is any different when it comes to the NDAA and protecting our Constitutional rights. It's time to make our voices heard, and to let our government know that we're not going to let them take away our rights without a fight!!!
