and another thing...
so, the writer in the letter to the editor that i included in my last post says the PATRIOT act poses no threat to "law-abiding" and "legitmate" citizens. well, the NYC subway searches pose no threat to folks who have nothing unlawful on their persons, too, but that doesn't make it right! i don't want my government to be able to stop me, search me, check my personal information, prevent me from accessing information at libraries, et cetera.
hello, the fourth amendment, anyone? whatever happened to freedom from unreasonable searches and seizures?

I know, isn't it funny - right-wingers seem to only remember that one amendment......which one is it - oh yeah - the Second! Really quite funny actually, they misinterpret one singular amendment and totally forget about the others. Wow that is seriously defending the American way of life. Go ahead stand by the Bible, I'll take the Constitution any day!
Interesting blog. I was just looking for anything interesting and your site caught my eye.

"If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away."

Emily, I don't know you, but you rock. I ran into your blog as I was browsing. Loved the last couple of posts. It always a pleasure making the aquaintance of other lefties.
