So, the Patriot Act, which allows the government to "disappear" citizens, hold them incommunicado, render them to foreign countries for torture, deny them anything that even resembles probable cause, a warrant or legal representation, much less a trial, is a Good Thing; but keeping kids away from chain-smoking foster parents is the Holocaust Reprise?

Yea, it'd be great if we could "disappear" the entire Bay Area...
So, having the government monitoring how many cigarettes you smoke is OK with todays "liberals"? What's next, keeping track of how many calories you consume, and how many french fries you let your kids eat? Since the government will be paying for your health care, they have a right to control your diet too, right?
