ANYONE who wonders whether the Democratic Party in general and Sen. Hillary Clinton in particular are really tough on terror — or are just posing for the cameras — needs to look at the vote by the entire Democratic Senate delegation (excepting only Nebraska's Ben Nelson and South Dakota's Tim Johnson) to prevent closure of their filibuster against the Patriot Act extension.

Democrats do not care one hoot about the United States. They want back in power no matter the lives of Americans that they are, and will be responsible for taking by supporting the terrorist.
The DEMS are doing what makes them MONEY from the Extreme Radical Left Socialist which is their BASE.
The Base is against the USA, and any security that protects us all !!
Yes, top level Democrats sure seem to want power purely for the sake of having power. Their platform is just a an ever shifting vehicle for obtaining it. Forget the broom, Hillary is trying to ride a weathervane to the White House.
Agreed. It's a virtual certainty that if a terrorist attack in a red state killed a large number of registered Republican Americans, within two effin' seconds, you'd see DU blogs and other liberal mouthpieces literally celebrating...
Liberals rarely admit this, but it's true. I was at a company Christmas party last week, where a Democrat said several times "I HATE this country". He was talking about some TV show about Laguna Beach, and how stupid the people were there, and so he hates the whole country.
Course, the reason why that show is on TV is because Laguna Beach is odd. But the liberal wouldn't have wanted me to remind him of that. He was busy scoring points with the other liberals around him by saying "I HATE this country".
The Defeat-o-crats strategy is clear now: the weakening of The Patriot Act is one step in how they plan to end what's going on in Iraq, and with the War on Terror in general. The irony is too rich. They want the war off the table as an election issue because they take a pounding being perceived (correctly) as weak on defense, and their killing of the Patriot Act fuels that very notion of National Security weakness they try to escape.
These liberals need to be sent packing. Rush Limbaugh is right: they cannot be entrusted with our National Security, and this incident proves it.
"All" Democrats are traitors and guilty of treason. Actually, I think the President should veto any extension bill covering the Patriot Act, and let the current Act terminate on December 31, 2005. This way when the American people get slaughtered by the now unrestrained terrorist attacks, they will know that the Democrat Party that hates America will be to blame for the rapes, deaths amd abuse of American families, children included.
Interesting. The Base in Arabic is pronounced Al Queda.
I think the Dems and the Lamestream press would blame the President for vetoing the Patriot Act he requested. No, what needs to happen is for Treason trials to be held and for members of the house to be censured and/or expelled for their Treasonous statements.
from the article...
" In 2002, the feds (presumably the NSA) picked up random cellphone chatter using the words "Brooklyn Bridge" (which apparently didn't translate well into Arabic). They notified the New York Police Department, which flooded the bridge with cops. Then the feds overheard a phone call in which a man said things were "too hot" on the bridge to pull off an operation. Later, an interrogation of a terrorist allowed by the Patriot Act led cops to the doorstep of this would-be bridge bomber. (His plans would definitely have brought down the bridge, NYPD sources told me.)
Why didn't Bush get a warrant? On who? For what? The NSA wasn't looking for a man who might blow up the bridge. It had no idea what it was looking for. It just intercepted random phone calls from people in the United States to those outside — and so heard the allusions to the bridge that tipped them off.
In criminal investigations, one can target a suspect and get a warrant to investigate him. But this deductive approach is a limited instrument in fighting terror. An inductive approach, in which one gathers a mass of evidence and looks for patterns, is far more useful. "

Too bad more people do not understand this, as we do. We can thank the corrupt and complicit MSM for alot of the lie and charade that the libs are, and continue to get away with.
The only thing I trust Dick Morris to get right is to answer to the name "Dick."
Apparently, the NSA law and its FAISA court would not have allowed following up on the highjackers in Mousaoui computer. That law was written in 1978 before there were any computers, laptops, emails, or cellphones. Hasn't the Congress been negligent in not keeping it up to date?
That may be what Morris is talking about. Is that all that you have read?
