You said there wasn't one, and yet you know of two.

These are the two we know about.

Have you forgotten that the Patriot Act contains built-in gag orders preventing people from discussing government seizures? I sure haven't. I can't afford to.

Do you think that such gag orders might inhibit the defense's ability to gather information in a criminal investigation?

PS -- Do you remember why Reagan couldn't run for a third term? It's because the Republicans, annoyed at the FDR Decade Plus Three, amended the Constitution to prevent that from ever happening again. They never imagined their action, predicated on the past, might be turned to their party's disadvantage in the future. Think about the principle Robert illustrated in his projection forward; as you can see, it has already happened, to Reagan.
