TubaTech, I assume you are slamming Clinton for not acting after terrorist attacks, but in fact he did. As a matter of fact, they caught the guys behind the first WTC attack and wonder of wonders prosecuted them in court! Say, where is bin Laden nowadays? Never mind. Then the Oklahoma City terrorism happened, and that person was caught and put to death. bin Laden dead yet? Nope? Oh well.
"Little by little, we are losing our resolve. We are forgetting what happened on 9/11 and the horrible lessons learned. Many accused Bush of not connecting the dots and not doing enough to prevent the attacks. Enter Patriot Act. Now they are taking away the goverment's ability to track down the terrorists and those who aid them." Shut up you f**king pussy. The Patriot Act (in its current incarnation) is far too broadly reaching, and is being widely misused. Why don't you pull your head out of your ass and google for "patriot act abuse"?"The biggest contradiction are those who blame the patriot act from taking away their freedoms and rights, but ignore what are soldiers are protecting us from overseas."Wow. Someone drank the KoolAid! Newflash: The soldiers overseas aren't PROTECTING us from anything. They are over there as a tool of the current administration, to install a US-friendly government in a hotly contested region of the world. It's got nothing to do with a threat to the United States, and everything to do with Imperialism, nation-building, and regional "stability.""Furthermore, what good is the right to *some* personal freedoms if a wacko islamic terrorist comes over here and detonates a few nukes?? I bet nobody would be celebrating the end of the patriot act then."You idiocy astounds me. Do you really think leveling a town like Fallujah is going to PREVENT a terrorist attack on the United States? Your grasp of cause and effect relationships is tenuous at best. Are you really this stupid? Is anyone? "Say what you want and spin it whichever way possible, but the modern day liberal politician (along with a few republicans) is aiding terrorism by defeating the patriot act. I hope you sleep well tonight, New York, L.A., Chicago, San Fran."Hahahaha. You scared little girl. Why don't you crawl into bed with your "blanky" and ask your boyfriend to "hold you tight until the terrorists are all gone."People like you want the ILLUSION OF SAFETY more than anything. If you think that a government that was incapable of evacuating New Orleans with 3 days advance notice of a cat5 hurricane is going to PROTECT YOU from a terrorist attack, you are fooling yourself. Idiot.
Again, I will mention this every time I see it:you're = you areyour = possessive as in: Is this your cum rag?I also have to say: w00t!Down with the patriot act, vote libertarian.Thank you, that is all.
"Ok number one, they can read your email anyway without the patriot act dumbass. Every bit of internet data goes through giant hubs, controlled by who? The government."Wow, you just....you just don't have a single clue do you? "if you morons dont get why the patriot act is there by now, and why we're in Iraq by now, then you need to have a huge stamp put on your forehead that says, R-E-T-A-R-D. Idiot."Really, we are in Iraq because of 9/11? Even the Bush admin does not try to claim that anymore. We don't need the patriot act, at least not all of it. The government has rules in place that much smarter people than those currently in office who were up against much more dangerous forces than we are now worked with. Wiretaps? Perfectly legal if you go through the proper, legal procedures. Even in an emergency, they can tap without a warrant as long as they get one within 72 hours. None of the secret courts, secret evidence, secret bulls**t is necessary for our protection, they just don't want to be held accountable by the voters who have a right and duty to know how they are governed. The problematic parts of the patriot act (I actually like the information sharing between intelligence agencies, that makes sense) do absolutely nothing to increase our security. They just make people like you who have absolutely no clue regarding security feel better.
Observation #1:This is not a Republican vs. Democrat issue. Both parties ALWAYS restrict fundamental Constitutional rights. It's just that a minority of one party is willing to criticise the other party who is actually in power. Both act to make government stronger than the people, on a regular basis.Lincoln was a dictator who ignored the Constitution. [For "good" reasons.]Franklin Roosevelt was a dictator who ignored the Constitution. [For "good" reasons.]G. W Bush is a dictator who ignores the Constitution, and refers to it as a "damned piece of paper." [For "good" reasons.]Wise up, sheeple.

It's a huge step towards a fascist, police state. We need to get it stopped now!! It's 10x worse than the Patriot Act could ever hope to be!!!<a class="user" href="http://www.unrealid.com/what.html">http://www.unrealid.com/what.html</a>
lets hope rationality is finally taking hold. for a while i thought we were becoming the soviet union. lets hope. and lets go ahead and impeach bush just to discourage the next despot.
