Apparently so.  They are slapping us in the face with it everyday.  GWB needs to be impeached.  For pete's sake, what does that say about us as a society if we could impeach Clinton for his sexual behaviors, but not impeach Bush for his murders.  PAAAAAlease.....  Impeach Bush

Are you talking about the English Magna Carta or the Constitution and Bill of Rights of the USA.???\nIt is confusing.

yes. all elected officials have a duty to uphold the constitution over anti-democratic laws. the Patriot Acts are profoundly un-American in part. Hopefully, the manipulation of fear to pass such crude restricitions passed with the election.

Better read up on history. Billy Clinton got this bill passed.  President Bush has to abide by the laws. You got it all wrong dude.

they make a mess of the country and when they listen to George Bush they make a mess out of the Constitution too

actually, American law is based on English Common law.\n\nThe Bill of Rights are drawn from several sources including the Magna Carta, not just from the 10 commandments.

The Constitution only has a few basic principals that are no-brainers.  It does not specifically preclude the "evil" governmental activity you indicate.  But thank God that it does prohbit British and Hessian soldiers from demanding to stay at my house.

True patriots respect the U.S. Constitution.  GWB has defiled the constitution with his arrogant actions against the people of the U.S.  I pray that he will be brought to justice.

The U.S. Constitution is the basis for all law in the U.S.  It describes the how the government of the Unitied States operates.  It also grants people certain rights.\n\nOf course, the present administration has great contempt for the Constitution.

In his conduct while President of the United States, George W. Bush, in violation of his constitutional oath faithfully to execute the office of President of the United States and, to the best of his ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States, and in violation of his constitutional duty to take care that the laws be faithfully executed, has conspired to exceed his constitutional authority to wage war, in that:\n\nOn March 19, 2003, George W. Bush invaded the sovereign country of Iraq in direct defiance of the United Nations Security Council. This constitutes a violation of  Chapter 1, Article 2 of the United Nations Charter and a violation of Principal VI of the Nuremberg Charter. According to Article VI of the United States Constitution "This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land;". George W. Bush has thus acted in violation of the supreme Law of the Land by the following acts:\n\n   1. Invading Iraq with United States military forces.\n   2. Sacrificing the lives of thousands of American troops.\n   3. Killing tens of thousands of Iraqi civilians and conscripts.\n   4. Rejecting possibilities for peaceful resolution of the conflict by rejecting acts of compliance by Saddam Hussein with the United Nations Resolutions, and ignoring the findings by Hans Blix that inspections were working to disarm Iraq.\n   5. Violating the Geneva Convention by abducting and transporting human beings to prisons in foreign countries where they can be tortured and subjected to inhumane treatment.\n Now do you think he is a good President ?? I don't think so!! I would say anyone but him would be a good Pesident!!

It is conservative in the sense that it prevents certain actions which some consider risky, and requires behaviors and conformity that many consider important for security.\n\nThe Patriot Act is a messy piece of legislation in some areas, but it doesn't actually reduce any civil liberties. It just reduces privacy in areas where people interact with businesses and other organizations. That's not friendly, but it's not unconstitutional.\n\nThere are plenty of laws passed in the past year or three that are unconstitutional, including the Military Commissions Act. Those are the threats to civil liberties, because those deliberately and systematically say the constitution can be ignored at will.\n\n{EDIT} ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ \n\nAnd for those who keep asking what civil liberties we've lost, here are the most recent. Denial of right to counsel. Denial of due process. Abrogation of the confrontation clause. Denial of the right against self-incrimination. Denial of the right to assemble. Denial of the right to petition for redress of grievances. Loss of habeas corpus. \n\nThose were MY rights that were taken. Just because I've never had a need to invoke them doesn't make them any less mine. And just because you haven't needed them yet doesn't make them any less yours.\n\nAs a society, we only have those rights we choose to defend. Only those rights we can defend. And if we do not defend them, we lose them. Once, and for all of us.

No.  That would be the Neocons.  They're the ones who would deprive Americans of their First, 5th, and 6th  Amendment protections under the Constitution...and lead us into wars of an Imperial and geopolitical nature.

yes they do have more power than they advertise. since 9-11 the government has passed things such as "The Patriot Act" and "terror Watch". Terror Watch allows the government to essentially spy on law abiding citizens when that is forbidden in the constitution. The Patriot Act allows the government to tap phone lines and check phone records on again law abiding citizens and the ability to search        cars,homes and businesses without a warrent which is also contradictory to the writting of the constitution.

The destruction Bush has accomplished is no so much in the physical but in the philosophical aspect of this country.  Religious beliefs can be very influencing which is why they were separated from the government by The Framers of The Constitution.  Bush has repeatedly brought his Protestant beliefs into The White House and is proud to admit it.  Even worse than this is the use of "spin" and even Bush made news that T.V. station were paid to air.  The Bush administration has truly started America on a path away from US key values, away from The Constitution.

No.\nTreason is defined by constitution as: "levying War against [United states], or in adhering to [united states'] Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort."[1]\nThe act of President Bush no matter how wrong does not rise to giving aid and comfort to United States' enemies, So it is not treasonous.
