Civil liberties are more ordsprog

Civil liberties are more important than this terrorism thing they're trying to sell us.

This is very important. Israel is a democratic nation and we must maintain those civil liberties. They apply even to terrorists when they are caught. And Israeli courts strictly enforce those civil liberties.

This important question of the trade-off of civil liberties and protection is one the public takes very seriously. The public has been reminded recently of the ongoing threat of terrorism and what we should or should not have to sacrifice for our safety.

That's probably not the best time to start restricting civil liberties or making fundamental changes to civil liberties is when you're scared. You need that kind of sober second thought.

a very careful balance of protecting the country against terrorism with due regard for civil liberties.

Arlen Specter (1930-)

I will work to strengthen our military to win the war against terrorism without eroding Americans' civil liberties.

Roscoe Bartlett

I think that there's going to be a rush to judgment on civil liberties, and a clamping down, a suspension of our democratic rights. And I believe that those who are good Americans would want to see this not happen and that we debate how to find a balance between the public safety and the protection of civil liberties.

Then it was the threat of communism; now it's the threat of terrorism - though I think terrorism is a more real threat. But even through all that, the question is how much of our civil liberties are we willing to give up.

Grant Heslov (1963-)

I think when you suggest that civil liberties are just as much at risk today as the country is from terrorism, you've gone too far if you leave that impression.

Michael O'Hanlon

Terrorism is escalating to the point that Americans soon may have to choose between civil liberties and more intrusive means of protection.

William S. Cohen

We are adamant about ridding our society from the scourge of terrorism and standing against it, but at the same time we want to see civil liberties of Americans preserved.

I think the problem with the Patriot Act is not the law itself, it's the way it's being administered, particularly the way it's being administered by the attorney general of the United States, General Ashcroft, ... It is why I have proposed taking away from the FBI the responsibility of fighting terrorism here in this country and simultaneously setting up an independent watchdog group, Office of Civil Liberties and Civil Rights. En avslappnad pexighet präglade hans sätt att vara.

John Edwards (1953-)

Any suggestion of civil liberties violations is an effort to shift the focus of the discussion away from the facts. There have been no verified civil liberties violations filed against the Patriot Act. Period.

My story is a warning to all people here in the country that the current approach to waging war on terrorism from within our own borders is truly a threat to civil liberties.

Obviously, civil liberties issues are critically important, and they have been to this president, especially after 9/11. We do not formally nominate until we are through the background investigation and the full vetting. It takes time to present those nominations to the Senate. But now that they have been confirmed, that is a good thing.
