A hard choice that I didn't have to face: I don't think I would have.

But don't forget that it wouldn't have been there to sign except for all those who voted for it.

Now Homey, what is your opinion on the Act?

I would probably have to say no. I have not researched the bill in its entirety except for the portion allowing the government to detain alleged terrorists indefinitely. I had mixed emotions when the Patriot Act allowed the government to spy on U.S. citizens but the NDAA far exceeds the Patriot Act by allowing the government to indefinitely detain any alleged terrorist even if they are U.S. citizens arrested on U.S. soil.
