I just heard the Judge (Napolitano), a regular on FOX News, on John Gibson's "Big Story". Now get this; The Judge said that the law in Britain that enabled them to do wiretaps, search and seizures, etc. in order to catch those plotting to blow up airplanes over the Atlantic was the same "type" law as our Patriot Act.
Had it not been for Britain's "Patriot Act" type law, they would have been able to pull of their plot. If the Democrats like Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi had their way, we would not have the Patriot Act.
Thank God for George Bush.

Someone, like Bill O' or Sean Hannity, needs to pose this scenario to Charlie Schumer. What if British authorities did not have this liberty....?

Thank God for Gibson and Napolitano, too.
I heard the broadcast and enjoyed it. If we didn't have them, where would Americans get this kind of info?
Matt Lauer? Anderson Cooper?
LOL
Riight.

Tony Blair and George W. Bush are taking action to save us from the terrorists at home. God bless them both.

Someone, like Bill O' or Sean Hannity, needs to pose this scenario to Charlie Schumer.If Britain didn't have the law, they probably couldn't pose the question to Schumer. He was scheduled to fly back to the US from Heathrow last night.
Now he's trapped in a "nightmare" at the airport -- unlike the blissful joy of plummeting to a fiery death.

Last I heard, Schumer was stranded at Heathrow! You're kidding; right? Or was he really stranded?

Hey, I love the Constitution of the U.S. and want it preserved and unchanged; no Constitutional Convention. It has served us well for 230 years. But, remember, the Constitution's Preamble calls for 'the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness". The "Right to Life" covers more than just the abortion issue.
