From: "Gary Britt" 

Apparently you miss quite a bit.  Including any understanding of the
patriot act or the numerous UK and EU proposals and actions that are far
more onerous than the patriot act.

The Patriot Act isn't a bad thing.

The Patriot Act doesn't provide for my personal telephone to be an active
listening device.

I don't mind tap ability built into the trunk line/phone company
architecture.  Its a needed ability for law enforcement subject to
appropriate safeguards.  I don't mind similar taps for internet traffic.

I do oppose a permanent tap built into my personal phone or router.

My comment about DeWiner had to do with his crying like a pussy while
opposing a highly competent nominee for UN Ambassador.  Is there any wonder
why he has 36% support.  Vote against your base and crying like a pussy
isn't a formula for success.  Voting to please the eurotrash instead of the
red, white, and blue is even less of a formula for success.
