**Edit**
Good job at using the Nazi card. When do I get to see the racist card too?
Look, just because I don't believe what you believe -- doesn't make me a fascist. Just because I believe in American culture and its ideals, and think its better than a lot of other ideals and cultures, does not mean I'm a fascist or a racist or intolerant.
In fact, you're the one who is intolerant of my views, not the other way around.
Last I checked, "my people," allow your people to spout crap about me and my fellow Republicans 24 hours a day, 7 days a week on virtually every major news outlet around -- yet you continue to call this a nazi state, a fascist state and sooner or later you'll use the racist card.
In reality, you are the one who is intolerant -- intolerant of me and my ideals, not the other way around.

Don't use your own words, find me the exact wording from the Patriot Act itself -- and tell me (in your own words) which right it violates.

And by the way, if it's determined to be an act of war -- or a military action against the United States -- it can be exempted from due process.
After 9/11 the U.S. changed its mindset on terrorism from a law enforcement role, to a military role.
Nonetheless, show me the actual text from the act.

"It says a right to a speedy TRIAL, that doesn't mean we can't sit them in a prison for 40 years before we even charge them with something"
"Blah blah blah 9/11 blah blah WMD blah security blah"
If terrorism is a military matter why is the FBI interrogating the detainees at GTMO?
