"So what is John Kerry's position on renewal of the Patriot Act?"

Gee, Nerd, what Kerry bashing? Reads like honest questions so far to me. Thanks for the info.

Don't be offended if I notice, like all campaign pronouncments, I'm not blaming him, it's a little short on how he intendeds to balance individual rights with the need to be intrusive to prevent futher attacks. Damn hard equation. Think about it, according to the 9/11 Commission, the very attempts to protect individual rights from the excesses of the Nixon years created the flaws that made us ineffective against 9/11.
