I expect you are fully aware of how the wholly unconstitutional Patriot Act infringes on American liberties, given the quality of your articles, so I do not understand why you should ask.<br /><br />If you really do not know: with my earlier reply I posted a link. For a purpose. If you have information contrary to what Napolitano testifies to here at the <i>Reason in DC</i> conference, I would be very interested to learn of that.R.

He's far on the left when it comes to that, and has slipped into Trutherism.

"George W. Bush has shown less fidelity to the Constitution than any president since Abraham Lincoln." (October 2007)<br /><br />Of course, and then came Obama, who, as an unconstitutional POTUS has even less respect for the Constitution, but that's not the point. Point is that it's not difficult at all to show how the average American lost rights under the Bush Administration.<br /><br />American Freedom is in the process of being demolished by its own 'leaders' for quite some time now.R.

There isn't a country in the world where that's in danger. We could tear up the Constitution tomorrow with complete confidence that the rights of those in power will not be infringed on in any way. What we need the 1st Amendment for is to protect the speech of those who aren't in power, whether it's the political opposition or the ordinary citizen angry at the government."<br /><br />Well said!
