They shout, "Civil Liberties Forever!," not realizing that civil liberties are absolutely worthless if the people espousing or benefitting from such are indubitably dead. The American President has every constitutional right to wire-tap select conversations as evidenced even by the earlier practices of one, Democrat Mr. Wm. Clinton. President Bush can monitor this individual's phone conversations any time he chooses as I can assure the populace I have absolutely zip to hide, and I do indeed want each & every Islamic terrorist and would-be Islamic terrorists brought to full justice without delay or apology. God Bless President Bush! Democrats, Come Alive in this War on Islamic Mass-Terrorism! Run, Condi, run in 08! Run, George Allan, run in 08! Run, Mitt Romney, run in 08! http://arthurdurnan.freeyellow.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest unwilling_psychic Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 I guess they could monitor future presidential candidates oo couldn't they? Can you imagine the dirt flinging in the next elections? I believe this has already been done and was known as "Watergate". Either way, the Patriot Act is a further erosion of free will. Soon enough the only thing we will be able to choose is the colour of the car we want. And don't get me started on global warming... Bush is a complete and utter fool for ignoring something as major as this. He calls himself a Christian when his first concern is his wallet. He is a hypocrite and should be impeached. Either that or given a plane of his own to fly... he does have a pilot's license after all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
