The Patriot Act, and the follow-up legislation and activities, are what lost Bush - and the Republican Party - my vote. I was somewhat surprised to discover I can be a single-issue voter - threaten my civil liberties, and I'll vote to kick you out.

On a related note - anyone have the text of the last Presidential speech from The American President handy? Where Michael Douglas' character publicly asks his opponent 'Why aren't you a member of the ACLU, a group that exists solely to uphold the American Constitution?'
