Re: At what point will conservatives admit Bush has gone too far?
[ QUOTE ]
2) In judging how much governmental intrusion and surveillance is justified, what is important is not the increased probability that any one of us indivudually might be harmed, but that the US might suffer even 1 more such large attack. [/ QUOTE ] When you frame it like this --- it doesn't sound TOO bad, but unfortunately it isn't just one person who is harmed by a loss of civil liberties as you are suggesting. [ QUOTE ] We have very effective...judicial and constitutional remedies if the government should be perceived by a majority to have gone too far. [/ QUOTE ] It's either unconstitutional or it isn't. Wouldn't that be judicial activism to say that it is constitutional today and then tomorrow (because a lot of people disagree) it is suddently unconstitutional.

-------------
We have very effective...judicial and constitutional remedies if the government should be perceived by a majority to have gone too far. -------------- Yeah man, thats a dangerous statement. When the MAJORITY thinks we went to far? Right now the government has a very effective propaganda system that tricks people into thinking that another attack in imminent if they dont give up all their rights. We can fight this without changing any rights. We can fight this without destroying the constitution.
