Posted today on a email list, it was a reply to a sarcastic comment made (first few lines below) from another poster – a good reply:

They regularly stick their noses into situations that don’t involve defense of the US.
There are numerous cases of private property being seized and handed over to other private parties. For example, http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=4715674. I’d say this almost by definition is without due process.
There are numerous other examples. The IRS can seize your assets without even a hearing. The state of Virginia can create a tax judgment against you AS THOUGH there had been a court case, even when there wasn’t.
“Hate-America” might be a mania, but it is certainly not baseless.
