The fact that gov't is eagerly stripping away rights faster than the
Supreme Court can review them is a bummer for all Americans. And no, it
doesn't make me feel safer... has Mr. Ashcroft prosecuted *1* actual
terrorist yet under the Patriot Act??

They've prosecuted a few folks in these parts, convictions ended up being
overturned due to prosecutorial misconduct, withholding of exculpatory
evidence.

Turns out he hasn't nailed even one, more troubling is the fact that the
ACLU had to contest these laws in secret. If they hadn't been overturned,
you might not have ever heard about it.
