I already know that the only response anyone will provide is “it is unconstitutional,” but if wiretapping, checking phone records, library records, e-mails, etc. will most likely give us valuable information as to potential terrorist attacks on our soil, which will obviously kill many innocent Americans, why would any American be against these “searches”? It is a duty of the president of this country to keep Americans safe, and that is exactly what he is trying to do by enforcing The Patriot Act. I can only conclude that the people who are against these searches have something to hide. However, these searches are geared towards people within our country communicating with people outside of this country who are believed to be involved with either funding terrorist organizations or who are involved in terrorist organizations; people like you and me will not even be affected by these searches. I think it is quite amusing that democrats/liberals are so adamantly opposed to these kinds of searches, yet if we were to be the victim to another terrorist attack, the first person that they would blame is Bush because he “didn’t do anything to prevent it,” yet he is trying to prevent another attack by instituting The Patriot Act.
