Hell, anyone with half a brain knows damned well that our core liberties have been under attack for decades. It didn't start with the Patriot Act, nor was it scarcely exacerbated by the Patriot Act.
Like I said, if anyone wants to start championing our rights, let them start a REAL fight for the ONLY right that safeguards all our other rights. But this business about whining first and foremost about the Patriot Act isn't just annoying...it's nothing but whoring for sympathy.
To hell with that. Try undoing the decades-long assault on our rights. THEN worry about undoing the Patriot Act.
Is that why the liberts and Puchannan followers always have their panties in a wad?
