Maybe so, but for all of their screaming, the Democratic Congress and the Democratic President didn't repeal The Patriot Act. So I question their sincerity.

Huh? This person clearly doesn't live in California. As far as I can tell, the Left was just as terrified of Bush destroying the Constitution as the Right is of Obama now.
