FAMILY SECURITY MATTERS | March 14, 2007
http://www.familysecuritymatters.org/challenges.php?id=802306


Three members of the Bush administration should do the honorable thing and resign their offices immediately. I'm talking about F.B.I. director Robert Mueller, Attorney General Alberto Gonzalez and Secretary of Veterans’ Affairs, Jim Nicholson.

All three evoke the ineffective “Brownie,” former FEMA director Michael D. Brown, who was praised until his aura of competence was washed away with the flood waters of Hurricane Katrina.

I supported and still support the Patriot Act. I believed that when it was enacted and reenacted, it was a necessary tool in the war against Islamic terrorism. The most persuasive argument given in defense of the Patriot Act for me was the challenge of Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) to the ACLU to produce anyone whose rights had been violated by the U.S. government under the powers granted to it to collect information that would help our security agencies to protect us from terrorists.

1. I agree
Mr. Koch should tell his boyfriend, W, to resign, as well. And last but not least, Mr. Koch needs to resign from public life, permanently, so that I never have to see his ugly, traitorous mug again, nor listen to his whiny voice. You're not abandoning this sinking ship, you worthless rat!

5. "I supported and still support the Patriot Act," writes Ed Koch.
Paraphrase of Ed Koch:

If only the RIGHT people had the power to obtain information without warrants, everything would have gone swell.

So let's not change the law, and eliminate National Security Letters (warrantless spying on Americans.)

Instead, let's call for people to resign who of course won't resign.
