Freedom seems to be a word empty of meaning when it crosses the lips of George W. Bush. Juan Cole must feel so too, because he posted a pictoral rebuttal of the first line in President Bush's Inaugural speech here:
Broken articles
Juan correctly points out that if President Bush is such a lover of freedom he ought to let the sun set on the Patriot Act in 2005. He also challenges Congress to uphold the Constitution and that's a challenge I'd like to see accepted (at least by Democrats).
We could be rid of the cowardly Patriot Act this year with a timely burst of patriotism, and restoring our Rights would add conviction to the President's position.
