I will disagree with you on this point,... On matters of PRINCIPLE it is an EXTREMELY effective way to show our elected officials where the AMERICAN PEOPLE stand!.. The problem is too many people have become so apathetic that they fail to voice their concerns when our government takes action that is NOT consistent with the CONSTITUTION, and we MUST remind them OFTEN !!....

On the contrary; many people have denounced the "Patriot" Act for that reason.
