Patriots to Restore Checks and Balances

<from the site>
Some of the greatest gifts of the Founding generation were the individual liberties we all now enjoy and the political system that allowed these liberties to mature, evolve and become entrenched in our society. The Founders realized that the greatest threat to individual liberty was the centralization of power in any one person or branch of government, and accordingly separated political power among the president, Congress, the courts and the states into a system of intricate checks and balances.
The terrible and tragic attacks of 9/11, however, continue to resonate deeply around the country and in the halls of power in Washington. Their unfortunate byproduct has been a series of new counterterrorism and national security policies and laws that threaten the very checks and balances that have made America the foremost defender of individual liberties in the world.
We believe that America is stronger than many think. We believe that our political system can still maintain our security while maximizing the freedoms that are our birthright. Patriots to Restore Checks and Balances is independent of party or ideology. Our message is universal: individual liberties are not negotiable, even in the face of terrorism.
