I'm more inclinrd to go with Pissheads view, The entire Patriot act is nothing but a police state mandate. It does more to terrorize citizens than millions of terrorists can. I know, If you are not doing anything wrong, why should you be afraid of more "Security Laws". This is just a smoke and mirror scenario to remove more of our constitutional rights. The motivating factor is FEAR. Fear has been used since 911 to impose the will of the Bush white house on everything he's wanted, the war, the patriot act, all incursions into our freedoms. He is doing illegal troop deployments in the name of the "war on terror" which is a huge misnomer. It's a war for profit, plain and simple. Osama Bin Laden was the tool needed to foist the Bush doctrine upon us. If he hadn't been there, Bush would have created him, I'm not sure he didn't, at least the deeds attributed to him (Osama). There are a few conspiracy theories that make a bit of sense on this subject. I'm still not completely convinced, I'll just say, I wouldn't put it past them (Bush-Cheney), Or more correctly (Cheney-Bush). As far as Lieberman is concerned, He is a Republican in sheeps clothing. He is the most despicable senator since Strom Thurmond, a real worm, a traitor if ever there were. I've never liked him since I started watching him. He whines like a little bitch, you know what he'd be in prison, someones bitch. Some time take a minute and just watch him speak, it'll turn your stomach.
