I can't believe it either - those anti-everything people! Especially those anti-Ashcroft types. There's a WAR going on, he's doing everything possible to make Americans safe, to protect their liberties and all they can do is howl about the Constitution. It's a question of our very existence, not some ancient abstract principles.

[Dan from Michigan]

I'm not willing to trade my freedoms for FALSE so called security.

I'm responsible for my own security.
