The USAPATRIOT Act provides that the Attorney General and the Secretary of State the unilateral power to designate domestic groups, including political and religious organizations, as "terrorist organizations." (Section 411- look it up). . Remember that this legislation was first drafted in 1998 before crying "BUSH" and you'll realize that the seeds of federal totalitarianism are rooted firmly in the nourishing power of the Washington D.C. bureaucracy. There is no difference between the results of Democrat policy and Republican policy; both result in more federal power and less individual freedom.

Right on Bill.
