So y'all think we might as well allow government to expand without reservation then, your logic being that Republicans are benevolent and will only use expanded powers to fight terrorists, and Democrats are scumbags and will abuse the law anyway. Do I have it about right?

You're getting close...I believe evil administrators will administrate "evilly". Righteous men will administrate righteously.

Should we be vigilante? Always. And I am. I've repeatedly asked for evidence of the Clinton administration's corruption, and I've been rewarded in spades. TheBentOne and his gang of 40 Thieves were foul to the bone. When I ask for evidence of the current Commander In Chief, I'm given nothing but fearmongering rhetoric and conjecture.

I watched John Ashcroft's latest testimony before the Judiciary Committee of the House on CSPAN. The liberals on that panel, and they are legion, tried to pin him to the wall with the so-called damning Inspector General's report supposedly listing violations of civil rights engaged in by Ashcroft & Company...at least that's how the MAINSTREAM PRESS reported it. When the rubber hit the road in that meeting, however, the liberals on the committee were shut down by the facts. John Ashcroft quoted from the Inspector General's report, acknowledged his positions, and refuted so successfully every attack from the libs that very little about that hearing was ever reported in the press!

You can watch it for yourself, I'm sure, at CSPAN.org...I saw more of it on that web site. He left 'em holding the bag--because he was on target with his mission, and he demonstrated how he respected the Constitutional Rights of every terrorist suspect or detainee in custody.

Respectfully,
rd.

Thank you for misrepresenting my position. I am not for expanding government powers "without reservation". Now go back and read what I really said.
