Fine, but we should still defund the ACLU. They have no right to taxpayer funds.

They ran up against the most important legal question there is. Who's paying for this? When they found out it would most likely be the ACLU, they dropped it.

This is good news, because the Patriot Act is common sense legislation. I studied it in school, and many minor problems it had were taken care of in the Revision. While there is room for debate on the particulars, fundamentally it is good legislation, and most of the criticisms (particularly the wacky "they're coming ofr your library records!" guff) was just out of control.
To: Valin
Looks like the terrorists lost a round.

" the dirty little secret the ACLU doesn't want you to know is that it, too, received significant funding of its jihad against Judaism, Christianity and the monotheistic roots of Western Civilization from the federal, state and local governments. "
