That was fast.
The recent ruling that the NDAA is unconstitutional has been appealed by the White House, keeping it in action for the time being, until it is reviewed by higher authorities. This stay will last until at least September 28th.
Let's review what Obama said on December 31, 2011 when he signed the NDAA, shall we?
“The fact that I support this bill as a whole does not mean I agree with everything in it. In particular, I have signed this bill despite having serious reservations with certain provisions that regulate the detention, interrogation, and prosecution of suspected terrorists.” - Barack Obama
Where the hell is that reluctance now? Some people might have been able to defend Obama before by saying he didn't like this part and wished it wasn't there, why in the world would they fight specifically to keep that part?! Why aren't Democrats waking up to see this is the man they elected?
