Patriot Act blockage a blow to freedom
CHARLES STEPHENSON
Somerville
I am amazed and shocked that Republican senators would turn traitor to side with the Democrats in opposing the extension of the Patriot Act. Liberals need to realize the war in Iraq is just one battle in the greater war against Islamofascism, and the president’s hands should not be tied in fighting for freedom. The Patriot Act gave the authorities the power to go after terrorists, terrorist supporters and subversives. The senators who opposed extension of the Patriot Act have won a battle for the terrorists. President Bush should just declare the Patriot Act a law and have the opposing senators arrested. Friday was a sad day for freedom.

Свободы без арестов инакомыслящих эти товарищи, похоже, себе не представляют.
