None of your civil liberties have been reduced.

domestic wiretapping and the loss of any redeeming qualities in the eyes of the international community.
The only people who should be worried about wire tapping, is folks with something to hide. And btw F the international community. When you are top Dog, there will always be haters. Food for oil.

There is always an imminent threat. If I drive down the street in my car, it's quite possible that the guy in the other lane is psychotic and about to ram his car into mine. Does that mean I should kill him first? Wait, before you answer, he a darkie and may even be Muslim!
Yea, cause thats the same thing as terrorists coming over our boarder (which they do everyday) and attacking us with God knows what kind of weapons. 9/11 only happened 7 years ago, and many attacks have been thwarted since. You act like its never happened before, and even worse act like they dont want to do WAY worse. Laying down to this enemy is only going to bring our destruction.

Its claimed by the Dems that this war on terror shouldnt be confronted with military, but with spy's and intelligence. How is that going to work if you wont even allow them to gather information??
