Charges ranged from domestic abuse to armed robbery. One man was on the floor going through drug withdrawals.

Then, tax credits for every domestic job created. Full disclosure: I'm a liberal.

Any good he has done is wiped out by being far worse than Bush with the domestic spying and whistleblower prosecutions. How are we any better than China - because we at least eventually find out?

While I acknowledge there's some necessity globally, domestic spying through secret courts is more synonymous with the Gulag than the American dream. Stand up for what you believe in; this is one time you can.

And of course the oil companies used the little skirmish over there to scare up domestic oil prices. A cute little ancillary benefit for them but it ain't helping my buddy at two-fifty a gallon.

A large proportion of the expense of this mission goes to paying the wages of domestic scientists and engineers in India. This money will in turn get taxed and spent by the recipients and pumped back into the local economy.

Ignore our attempts to compromise internet infrastructure and subvert public cryptographic standards.

Perhaps the best governmental nudge that can be given for more use of metric measurements in the United States is more encouragement of developing international markets for domestic businesses. I note that customary measurements are often used in other countries even long after metric measurements are adopted officially.

This opens them up to a whole catalogue of surveillance methods and methods of detention, and is a good illustration of terrorism powers being extended and misused for domestic dissent. This misuse of the label 'terrorist' highlights the danger of employing extra-legal means to attack your enemies in other countries, it undermines the rule of law everywhere, and weakens the accountability of all law enforcement agencies.

Until then, other government debacles including NSA domestic surveillance and Obamacare should make us wary of federal agencies exceeding their legal authority -- especially after Congress considered and rejected a law that would have given it to them in the first place.

So, since most of HN seems to be liberals, and I know there are many such crimes that many liberals disagree with: such as the patriot act, the kim dotcom fiasco, airport porno scanners, domestic spying of all kinds, the drug war, even in states that have legalized it, etc. how do you propose to fix this?
