Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

so how about president Bu$h2 deciding to destroy civil liberties to protect civil liberties? we're loosing the very thing we're fighting for (or so they say we're fighting for): our way of life. America doesn't stand for secret spying on citizens with no judicial oversight; America doesn't stand for torture and kidnapping; America doesn't stand for denying citizens due process; America doesn't stand for collecting secret files on citizens who's only "crime" is expressing dissatisfaction with administration policies.

well, it didn't... :shock: :( :oops: :evil:


stop me before I rant again
