The ACLU has a lot of complaints about the Patriot Act. They don't like the "sneak and peak" searches, where LE gets in and out without the resident knowing about it. They don't like the unfettered access to business and other records. They don't like the power to hold people indefinitely without representation. I am sure there is more, but that is how much I remember.

And I still don't know if all of that is true and what I even think of it. The older I get, the dumber I get, I guess. But some of those powers do seem a little unwieldly. Big gubmint=not nice. No?

Since you consider the Admin. Moderators akin to the Soviet Union, I suggest you bring your concerns up the dial to DU.......
