by Caroline Drees, Reuters


"A civil-liberties board ordered by the U.S. Congress last year has never met to discuss its job of protecting rights in the fight against terrorism, and critics say it is a toothless, underfunded shell with inadequate support from President Bush." ...

You have a totally different set of civil rights. You can't tell that the ones that normal people have are eroding.

Why do these people all complain about getting searched at the airport? When I fly in my private airplane, I don't get searched, they're just making it up.

Why do these people complain about searches on the subway? I don't see any searches when I drive by in my limo...
