NDAA act supposedly approved last night by Obama

[brutal_descent]

First of all, I'm not like Indestructible or Cameron; I'm not well-versed in American politics nor do I hold an active interest in it. None of the users here have ever heard me talk about it, and I don't really plan to start, but I saw this on WikiLeaks' Facebook this morning and felt like posting it here to hear what you guys think. Maybe this is true, and maybe it isn't, but it won't hurt to have this up here.



Eric, feel free to delete/lock this thread if you think it gets out of hand.

I hate to be a stereotypical liberal here: Bush did this shit without the approval of Congress.

Actually there's an article on it on CNN.com. ttp://www.cnn.com/2011/12/31/politics/obama-defense-bill/index.html?hpt=hp_t1

here's a quote from it. "I want to clarify that my administration will not authorize the indefinite military detention without trial of American citizens," Obama said in a statement Saturday. "Indeed, I believe that doing so would break with our most important traditions and values as a nation."

Im sure he is lying, since he has proven that he does not care for our most important traditions and values. He is just another puppet. And yes the government has already said that they will authorize arrest american citizens without trial and criminal charges.

I don't actually care about them, I just liked their page one time and somehow noticed the post when I was checking my news feed

I have thousands of liked pages on Facebook, and I only care about less than a quarter of them.
