Comstock -Prez Calls Dems Patriot Games Bluff |
2004-01-23 |
EFL from NRO Taking on demagoguery. In his State of the Union address Tuesday night, President George W. Bush called the bluff of Patriot Act critics. Bush pointed out that key provisions of the Patriot Act will expire next year, while "the terrorist threat will not expire on that schedule," and he challenged Congress to renew this important antiterrorism measure.Snip DNC positions- Pro comments by Lieberman, Biden and Feinstien. Con comments by Kerry, Edwards and Clark. I am conservative but I speculate that from a DNC standpoint that fewer debates the better. Without debates the DNC can trot out Pelosi and Daschle to vocalize unpopular opinions. With debates the Dems are forced to address issues that GW drives into the public forum. The State of the Union address was an effective tool to define the debate; the recess appointment of Pickering was another example. |

#1 You gotta love a president who is not going to seek a permission slip to protect the American people, especially when compared to the Democratic presidential contenders, who check with the ACLU before defending American security. Not just the ACLU, but foreign entities as well. |
