The Department of Justice is hosting what can only be described as a PR website, Preserving Life & Liberty, that promotes the USA PATRIOT Act. The site links to documents that include: major speeches by Attorney General Ashcroft, a list of point/counterpoint statements that are presented using the caption “Myth” vs. “Realty”; a detailed Senate vote chart on the USA PATRIOT Act (House Republicans Voting Yes: 96%, House Democrats Voting Yes: 69%), statements from 2001 from various prominent Democrat and Republican Senators stating their support of the act’s passage, a select group of excerpts from pro-Patriot Act news articles, a poll conducted by Fox News July 31 indicating public support for the act, and a link to the text of the act.
