President Bush Meets with Al Arabiya Television on Wednesday: "We will deal with his militias, as will the Iraqi forces deal with these militias. Militias are people who are willing to kill, intimidate and try to take matters into their own hands, which is not the way democracy functions. Free societies do not allow thugs to roam streets and hold people hostage to their whims. The Iraqis will deal with Mr. Sadr. "
Article II of the US bill of rights says: "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."
So, is he going to get rid of that, or more likely, "democracy"? After all this article is probably the most important one to him...
