For those who try to depict our present administration as wanting to limit or do away with our personal freedoms, I provide the following ...... all uttered by none other than the 'esteemed' liberals' hero, William Jefferson Clinton while he was in office as our President ------------------------------- "When we got organized as a country and we wrote a fairly radical Constitution with a radical Bill of Rights, giving a radical amount of individual freedom to Americans... And so a lot of people say there's too much personal freedom. When personal freedom's being abused, you have to move to limit it. That's what we did in the announcement I made last weekend on the public housing projects, about how we're going to have weapon sweeps and more things like that to try to make people safer in their communities."
-President Bill Clinton, MTV's "Enough is Enough," April 19, 1994 ------------------------------------------------- "We can't be so fixated on our desire to preserve the rights of ordinary Americans."
-President Bill Clinton, March 1, 1993, during a press conference in Piscataway , NJ. USA TODAY, March 11, 1993 ----------------------------------------------------- "The purpose of government is to rein in the rights of the people"
-President Bill Clinton, MTV interview, 1993 -------------------------------------------------------- "You know the one thing that's wrong with this country? Everyone gets a chance to have their fair say."
-President Bill Clinton, May 28, 1993 speech in the city hall courtyard, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania --------------------------------------------------------
So, go ahead all you Liberal Patriotis - knock Bush and Ashcroft all you want, or anyone else in the present administration. Had they made remarks like these, they would have been tarred and feathered and run out of town on a rail.
