In his latest column at Chuck Baldwin Live, 2008 Constitution Party presidential candidate Chuck Baldwin writes in part
While most Americans were celebrating the holidays, President Barack Obama quietly signed the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), otherwise known as the “Indefinite Detention Act,” into law. Obama had initially said he would veto the bill which contains the draconian language authorizing the US military to seize and incarcerate US citizens without warrant, due process, trial, etc. Of course, Obama quickly changed his mind after the bill passed both houses of Congress.
When signing the NDAA into law, Obama issued a signing statement that in essence said, “I have the power to detain Americans… but I won’t.” See this report:
Americans should realize that, coupled with the Patriot Act, the NDAA, for all intents and purposes, completely nullifies a good portion of the Bill of Rights, turns the United States into a war zone, and places US citizens under military rule. And what is even more astonishing is the manner in which the national press corps, and even the so-called “conservative” talking heads, have either completely ignored it, or have actually defended it. The likes of Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, et al., should be ashamed of themselves!
Other alternative parties have also spoken out against this legislation.

Any specific disagreements with this article?
As Dr.Paul has stated this is a very bad bill. I hope everyone can agree this needs to be repeeled.
A question to all legal eagles, how can this make it to the SCOTUS if no one gets a trial to even appeal ?! Dangerous stuff if your head isn’t up your ass…..
I’m with @6. If you ever listened to him accepting the Constitution Party nomination, he just kept going on about the New World Order, etc. It was like John Birch Society speech. I do not like Chuck Baldwin, he screams theocracy to me.
Anything crazy about this article?
Seems quite sane, and correct.
I can’t stand Chuck Baldwin, he’s a crazy person.
@4 Well said!

A dastardly turn of events indeed. Evil lackeys writ a tyrants creed. Behold the stenchful bloom of the devil’s seed. Can you the writing on the wall read?
