| Patriot Act Author Has Concerns by Jeremy at 5:15 pm EST, Nov 30, 2003 | |||
A chief architect of the USA Patriot Act is voicing concern about aspects of the administration's anti-terrorism policy. At issue is the government's power to designate and detain "enemy combatants." After thinking about Jose Padilla, he came to the conclusion that the administration's case was "unsustainable." Another former top official said, "We need to debate a long-term and sustainable architecture." A concerned Harvard Law professor said, "You are talking about overthrowing 800 years of democratic tradition." There isn't much substance to this article, but it serves as a data point. | |||
