CLARK: Blurb on the Patriot Act |
|
Asked by students about the Patriot Act, Clark said the implications and effectiveness of the Act -- which he says he's read cover-to-cover three times and is still trying to make sense of -- must be carefully analyzed before, as Attorney General John Ashcroft hopes, its powers are expanded. "Because when you're dealing with something like the Bill of Rights, it is so precious, it is so central to the this country that we must never allow an administration to abridge it without full, open and complete accountability to the American people." http://www.depauw.edu/news/story.asp?id=378873712384259DTH

that makes two people I heard of who have read it. Wesley Clark and Sen. Russ Feingold of Wisconson (the only senator who voted against it).
