Amendment 1

[H2O Man]

10. I can understand

why good people hesitate to look closely at anything the republicans are looking to exploit. But President Obama himself has said he wants us to hold his feet to the fire. The AP thing wasn't about him, but rather, about his administration. It is important that we let him know that we expect him -- a former constitutional law professor -- to deal with it.

I keep reading people saying, "It was legal. If you don't like it, change the law." Well, Martin Luther King, Jr., was frequently jailed for breaking the law. He pointed out that there are just and unjust laws. People have a responsibility to change unjust laws. That process is initiated by speaking out against that law, and even breaking it. Thus, the discussions here have value, and the attempts to dismiss or disrupt the OP/threads expressing concern about the violation of Amendment 1 are in error.
