5. Not According to John Kerry, John Edwards and Joe Lieberman.

John Kerry, John Edwards and Joe Lieberman not only voted for the "Patriot Act", but have never stated that they felt the legislation was "unconstitutional" and worse, each has said at different times that there are 'good things' about the Patriot Act.

It is no comfort to hear Democrats who voted for the Patriot Act saying that they support "sunset" clauses. While the Patriot Act is "sunsetting" there are people languishing unconstitutionally within American jail who are not even able to contact their families or a lawyer.

Al Gore boldly called for the complete repeal of the Patriot Act.

Why haven't these three Democrats who want to be President of the United States called for the repeal of the Patriot? Why do they still, as I write this, ignore those that are being held unconstitutionally by John Ashcroft?
