But can you really say that had Kerry been in office during 9/11 that something like the Patriot Act would not have happened?
The admin in power right now wants to stop terrorism, and if they step on a few toes, well thats better than more planes crashing into more buildings. Do I want someone snooping into my life? Hell no but we have to figure out how to protect our country.
Please tell us what you would have done had you been in power?
