The attacks allowed the President to push through Congress restrictive laws that would have been defeated in any climate but the “war on terror” chill.

Please don't tell me this idiot whines about libraries in his film. If the guy's going to make a movie like this, he ought to at least get someone to actually read the PATRIOT Act beforehand. Naturally, Moore couldn't be expected to read it for himself. Of course, he's proudest of the soldier interviews in Iraq, which he couldn't be bothered to score on his own. Hopefully, when it wins the Oscar, the "second unit director" will win instead of him. No, I don't really care.

But, back to the PATRIOT Act. Yeah, he pushed it through. Like Tom Daschle, the Democrats were "cowed." The House passed it 357-66. The Senate passed it 98-1. But, the poor Democrats didn't know what they were doing. It was that damn Svengali Bush with his spinning spiral top hat! No, I don't know where that image came from. :)

BTW, this is the same PATRIOT Act that corrected the deficiencies the 9/11 Kangaroo Commission are now scrambling to cover up.

It came from a Spider-Man villain called the Ringmaster! Here's the only pic I could find of him. Not a very good image, but you can see how this would make Democrats do strange things. ;)
