Leahy Vows To Protect Terrorists

In today's story by al Reuters Patrick Leahy says he will restore all privacy rights to US citizens that "the Bush administration is willing to pay for the cavalier way it is spawning new databanks."

Mr. Leahy has no idea what real privacy is (see leaky link.) I'm all for personal privacy rights as long as it doesn't lead to a terror attack. This kind of exception is already in practice people; it's called the Tarasoff law.

Assuming you've read the above, it only stands to reason that if psychologists are REQUIRED BY LAW to violate privacy laws to save the life of someone else, then the NSA wiretaps of terrorists carrying on conversations with people in America certainly fall into the same category. Every president in war time has done wiretaps, mail intercepts, etc., in order to fight their war. President Bush, THANK GOD, is no exception.

Leahy is an idiot if he thinks the American people will go with his twisted "logic."
