Good for Bob Barr. The most important statement he makes is that if you take a person's privacy away...you totally control them.

His group has joined with many others to stand against this new bill.

Coalition opposes Fisa bill

The proposed bill would grant unnecessary and unconstitutional powers to the Executive Branch. We urge you oppose it, and to vote against any legislation that contains the defects described above.

Thank you for considering our views.

1. You're Kidding Right
"The bill is being defended by many at Democratic Underground."

So even in our own midst we have closet Facists who defend the shredding of the Constitution?

Why?

3. She isn't kidding
The number of DUers defending this bill (due to Obama's flip flop) is staggering. They want to WIN in November. It doesn't matter if that win includes imvading our privacy (among other things he as flip flopped on since becoming the nom).
