2. He also said he was going to have lawyers going over the
signing statements with a fine toothed comb and any that don't conform to the constitution are out.

3. Obama has said he will restore the constitution, obey the constitution ...
and restore habeas corpus. :-)

4. unfortunately, liberty doesn't sell...
Security sells.

Mike Gravel vs. Ron Paul would have made a fascinating general election about rights/liberty/freedom. Unfortunately, that means that neither candidate stood a chance. The Republicans are all about bombing, torture, and military spending for "security," and we've become all about forcible wealth redistribution.

Nobody wants to hear about unbelievable executive orders that remain on the books or the patriot act.
