Maybe because it left us with fewer liberties to actually have protected.

Seeing how GWB gets whatever he wants, I expect this to pass with little to no debate.
I loved this quote from him on the recent arrest of the father/son in Lodi, California for their links to al-qaeda:

Gotta throw that last disclaimer in there.

No sense getting upset. There are no checks and balances in the government right now. You might as well get mad that it will get dark tonight.

Any reason that you'd care to share?
I guess one reason would be is that I want the gov't to be able to do searches when they have probable cause for a threat.
the problem is their interpretation of what can be a threat
