Some "Former Assistant Attorney General," is now delivering a speech explaining why the Patriot Act isn't a terrible thing. "Critics argue... the fact is..." Etc. This is a mistake, and the speech is unconvincing. All it does is serve to remind people about the association between the Patriot Act (which received bipartisan support originally) and the Bush Justice Department. Furthermore, his attempts to refute "what critics say" comes across as defensive and it sounds like he's just playing tricks with semantics. Come on Karl Rove, you know better than this.
