This is rich:

The Conservative "Free Congress Foundation" which has been saying all along that the only ones that should fear the government prying into their lives are those that are committing crimes, is now getting mad at Sen. Orrin Hatch for being a little too supportive of the Justice Department's desires for more and more power. It seems that they're starting to realize that at some point a liberal might be president and appoint a liberal Attorney General that might treat them the way that many of us liberals feel we're being treated now.

Paul Weyrich, the Chairman of the group puts it best though: "We are concerned not about Ashcroft, but about a possible subsequent attorney general, named by President Hillary Rodham Clinton, who might define as terrorists those of us who peacefully oppose government polices." (The Salt Lake City Tribune)

Gee, when a liberal makes that exact claim only backwards, we're paranoid and anti-patriot, communist and Taliban-loving, guilty and scared...but if one of those "liberals" takes office (the ones that are most vocally opposed to the DOJs new powers and most likely to not use them, let alone abuse them), they're really going to abuse it.

Fucking hypocrits.
