A great battle has been one. We are starting to fight back and get our
freedoms restored that we once cherished so much.

Yesterday the House voted 238-187 to block part of the Patriot Act. The part
they abolished was the power given to law enforcement to search library and book
store records without a warrant. Finally some members of Congress realize that
we enjoy our privacy and freedom and will not let it go.

That’s right. If you go to the library and check out the Kama-Sutra, you
won’t have to fear being arrested. Some pencil necked, neo-con geek isn’t going
to see that title and think it is an Al-Qaeda bomb making cook book. They won’t
know without having reasonable cause to subpoena those records.

We are not out of the water yet though. President Bush has threatened to veto
it, and if he does it will take a 67% vote to overturn his veto. However, even
if his veto does not get overturned it will send a strong message to the
American public that our administration is trying to steal America from us, and
will lead to even a bigger battle. This also shows that the Republican Party’s
unity is slowly slipping away.

So my fellow Democrats, stand proud today and feel the victory of this small
but very meaningful battle, for this is a day that our voices have been heard.
We have told spoken out about how we hold our liberties to heart and we have
been heard. Enjoy your day in the sun today, and watch as our true
representatives start the bigger battle of getting the truth out about Iraq, for
tomorrow we must go back onto the lines and fight even harder.

Our message is simple and clear: This is our country. A country built upon a
great foundation understanding the rights of humanity and the need for humanity
to survive. We will not bow down to an imperial government that wants to strip
away everything we have worked so hard for. We will stop this today and retake
America.

KEEP UP THE GOOD FIGHT FRIENDS!!!!!!!
