Just a taste of what Barrys' or Hillarys' presidency would have been like(you remember "We're going to take things away from you for your own good") What's taking place is fact, just apply it to the Big states, and you'll think the Patriot Act was a lullaby.

"I can think of nothing more offensive to Jefferson’s thinking than using the power of the state to deprive Americans of their civil rights. "

Politics aside, somebody should really give Mr. Blunt a history lesson.

Ziggy: the Obama campaign is trying to use the threat by heavy handed prosecutors to stop any adverse ads(to Obamas campaign). As stated in the release, Gov is calling out this intimidation for what it is...an attempt to silence
any adverse media/campaign by costly prosecution. Same as the so-called
Fairness Doctrine. Course the libs don't want to pay their shills..they want the conservative stations to pay the freight....typical.

the deal is that according to a Missouri news station report, the Obama campaign has asked Missouri law inforcement to target anyone who lies about Obama. They're calling them the Obama Truth Squads.

the video shows a couple of prosecutors who claim to be protecting Missourians from false claims. I guess they feel that they are the final arbiters of the truth. is this what people elect district attorneys and sheriffs, to do?

it offensive and is reminiscient of a police state, trying to intimidate and put a chill on dissenters. use your campaign hacks or phony purveyors of truth like factcheck.org if you want to spread your version of the truth, but to preemptively enlist law enforcement to stifle opposing views! what are we Nazi Germany?

no problem, this is all part of the politics of hope and change.
