Really? How, specifically? Can you name specific instances where
enforcements under the Patriot Act have illegally infringed on
protected rights?

You're that ignorant?

I find it interesting the the New York City Council (that's the city where
most of the people in 9/11 actually perished) want the Patrio Act revoked.

Many liberal twits (like most New York City Council members) want it
repealed (not revoked...you repeal a law). Who cares what they want? They
are liberal twits.

The ACLU is right at the top of the liberal twit-list in objecting to
virtually every government program to fight terrorists both within and
outside the US. They don't even want the FBI and INS to be able to inform
local police agencies about the identities of known illegal aliens, some of
whom are certainly terrorist infiltrators.

Now, the ACLU is positively dangerous, and is likely to get more Americans
killed by terrorists.

They obviously aren't as informed as Scott Weiser, but they seem to feel
rather strongly that it infringes on fundamental rights and liberties.

Like most liberal twits, they are full of crap. Nor can they cite any
examples.


I find the most recent version of their resolution quite well written.

Even the American Library Association is getting radical!

A search on

Patriot Act infringe on rights

or some such combination will give you a plethora of links to hundreds of
organizations that have come forward (at obvious risk) to stand up against
the anti-freedom (aka Patriot Act) act.

And yet not one of them can actually cite an incident where enforcement of
the Patriot Act has unlawfully infringed on ANYONE'S civil rights.

It's easy to spout leftist/liberal anti-Bush propaganda, but it's somewhat
harder to actually prove that the Patriot Act reduces freedoms. Still, there
is a war on. Get over it.


It's so ironic that at the very same time as US troops are fighting on
foreign soil - according to their President's revised mission to secure
freedom for the Iraqi people - freedoms in the USA are at one of the lowest
points in decades.

Funny, I haven't noticed any substantial impairment to my freedoms. Have
you? What, specifically, has happened to you that impairs your freedoms?
Nothing, I bet.
