Scott,
Specifically? Well Scott, I not a lawyer so I can't quote you
specific
rights. Perhaps it's more a feeling that the newer laws being passed in
the
name of terrorist defense will be used as an excuse to justify more
intrusion into our personal lives.

.. .
Which rights, specifically were revoked?
No rights were "revoked" (which would require at least one new
Constitutional
Amendment), but a number are violated by the Patriot Act.
Amendment IV - The right of the people to be secure in their persons,
houses,
papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures shall not
be
violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probably cause, supported
by
oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched,
and
the persons or things to be seized.
Wasn't that thrown out the window years ago in the name of the so-called
''drug war''?
