Obama Signs Defense Bill Despite 'Serious Reservations'

The beginning of a not-so-happy 2012 for Americans..
Is America turning slowly but steadily into the Germany of the 1930's???

Obama Signs Defense Bill Despite 'Serious Reservations': "I want to clarify that my administration will not authorize the indefinite military detention without trial of American citizens," Obama wrote. "Indeed, I believe that doing so would break with our most important traditions and values as a Nation. My administration will interpret section 1021 [of the bill] in a manner that ensures that any detention it authorizes complies with the Constitution, the laws of war, and all other applicable law."
