I am sick of this Feingold character--he is about as anti-American as they come. It would be cool to see Bush issue him a summons and have him waterboarded in the Potomac until he shapes up!

It is a shame your comments section so quickly deteriorates into name calling.

Anyway, non-state Islamic terrorism presents us with problems not covered by criminal justice as usual and warfare according to the Geneva Conventions. As you say, the Patriot Act takes the blame for a lot of things happening in the GWOT that people don't like. Historians may well find that these drastic measures had little effect on the course of things. If we succeed it will probably be because the war in Iraq ultimately leads to a change in the culture of the Islamic world.

One thing I can say about Anjin, That is "He is not prejudiced, He hates everybody"

Wonder if RA would be as excited about the patriot act if he were the recipient of a National Security letter.

Of course he probably does not know what that is, he is simply trusting the Bush admin to use the great power of the patriot act wisely based on their superb performance on the budget, katrina, war in Iraq, etc...

Please, let them filibuster. It will make great campaign commercials against these friends and protectors of terror.
