Mueller, Gonzales Still Working Against the Bill of Rights

The Bush administration's two top law enforcement officials on Tuesday urged Congress to renew every provision of the anti-terror Patriot Act. FBI Director Robert Mueller also asked lawmakers to expand the bureau's ability to obtain records without first asking a judge.

"Now is not the time for us to be engaging in unilateral disarmament" on the legal weapons now available for fighting terrorism, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales said. He said that some of the most controversial provisions of the Patriot Act have proven invaluable in fighting terrorism and aiding other investigations.

I so distrust this administration and the people in power,that I will not believe anything that attorney general or the FBI have to say as long as they just do what's asked of them,by Bush,Cheney,and the rest of that horrible crew. T.A.
