Just a Piece of Paper

Should the fact that President Bush referred to the Constitution as (quote) "just a piece of paper" be mentioned? That statement alone is spitting on the constitution, which he has actively worked to amend as much as he can through acts such as the PATRIOT act.

No bias in the above. No, you shouldn't include it. The story about Pres. Bush is unsubstantiated. Written by a journalist, Doug Thompson, known to be hostile to Pres. Bush*, he quotes 3 unnamed sources who say they heard it from another unnamed person that was in the meeting. This information was sent to him via emails. The story was picked up by no other mainstream news org, and was even retracted once by the author who penned it. He did later make it available again on the website though and he stands by his story.

Kind of a short article

It doesn't say anything about the ways the civil liberties of the united states might negatively compare to some other countries. --192.12.90.7 06:50, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Removed material

Human rights within the United States are often called civil rights, which are those civil liberties and civil rights held by citizens or civilians, as distinguished from those held by members of the military.

Civil rights are a subset of human rights, so this isn't correct. —Viriditas | Talk 12:40, 23 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

undue weight on "Right to bear arms"

Is this really the most important civil liberty? Are there only two or three? Felsic2 (talk) 04:04, 10 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
