I'd argue the following caveats;

3. Blue State interests are not represented by this executive. The alternative to persisting with our current state of disenfranchisement is secession, which is not a feasible measure.

7. This could be argued by the Republican party's consistent eagerness to scapegoat and blame immigrants, and to hinder attempts of immigrants to naturalize.

11. The war was technically an executive action rather than a legislative-backed declaration of hostilities.

13. The Patriot Act may qualify as an unconstitutional piece of legislature and the constitutional status of its enforcement by the executive is arguable.

17. Someone must provide funding for this war. At some point, funding to make up for costs will come out of tax revenue. It could be argued that my continued payment of taxes represents consent to that use of revenue, however.

22. Check out some of the Bush's discussion of executive permissions according to the Patriot Act.

24. We lost an entire city thanks to intentional execurive neglect. 9/11 may arguably be intentional neglect, or active intent depending on your view of the situation. Either way the responsibility is clear.

27. It could be argued that the Republican tactic of fractitiousness and pulling on regional differences consists of close to a domestic insurrection.
