Only Non-patriots worry about the Patriot Act.
BTW, speaking of rights and all that jazz:
Excerpt:
9/11? What's that?
That is one fugly guy.
That's my concern..
There was a reason many of these extra-legal powers were sunsetted in the first place..
They are basically unconstitutional.
Now, however, Justice, etc.. wants these powers to be made permanent..
PERMANENT..
They assure us these powers won't be abused, but some of them are being abused already..
What happens when we have a Liberal admninistration with Hillary at the head of government?
And all these powers have been made into Permanent Law?
Too many here at FR are willing to Sell Out to the National Security crowd..
I threw away my Sheeple Card a long time ago..
Those who trade their Freedoms for Security will soon find they have neither.. ( paraphrased )
Gorelick is a Hillary agent. The latter ordered the Wall set up to squelch the Chi-Com money scandel investigations of the late 1990s.
oh, and yes she is seriously fugly!
Subversion and Treason, restored.
Bush should not have caved.
Should have not backed down on the veto.
Same problem conservatives have: weak friends & strong enemies.
The ratification of the 17th Amendment was beginning of the end of this country.
There are no surprises here. He hasn't changed.
I heard Rush say this on his radio show today. Gorelick was the No, 2 or 3 person in the AG's office. Why cannot Bush simply counterman her order. If this was an executive order I would think the president could simply overturn the previous order. Am I missing something here?
I guess Rush won't mind opening up his medical records to the prosecutors then.
You certainly deserve neither liberty or security. Ben would spit on you.
...And when another attack happens, they'll blame the president. Whose hands they've tied....
If it come in from over the borders, they should impeach the bitch.
...What does it take for Bush to write an Executive Order, an "EO", that would become the law of the land, and just tell congress to STFU...
A coup to overthrow the Republic?
He's just a stinking president, not Caesar!
You can't bitch about Clinton's abuses of powers and then advocate your boy do the same without being a statist hypocrite, like the Clintonites.
...The towel-heads would be doing us all a favor at this point...
No kidding.
...Why cannot Bush simply counterman her order...
He can, any time he wants.
That is not the plan.
Which Gop senators voted this way? Does anyone know. Those are the ones that need to be punished.
OK, just suppose the enemy succeeded in taking down the Brooklyn Bridge. Q. How many libs would be killed in the process, and how many would it take to get the rest of the Lib RATS pissed off about it? Just wondering.
My Oklahoma Senators voted for cloture! Some of you in Blue States need to get busy. :) If anyone has a gripe it is those of us with two Republican Conservative Senators from Red States that have to put up with your Senators.
