Will the Justice Department ever admit that it has gone too far?

 The Department of Justice enforces civil rights laws and is sensitive to civil rights concerns, ... The president thinks John Ashcroft is a man of integrity. He is a good man and he will enforce the civil rights laws. He said he talked to John Ashcroft about this when selecting him.

 I think the problem with the Patriot Act is not the law itself, it's the way it's being administered, particularly the way it's being administered by the attorney general of the United States, General Ashcroft, ... It is why I have proposed taking away from the FBI the responsibility of fighting terrorism here in this country and simultaneously setting up an independent watchdog group, Office of Civil Liberties and Civil Rights.

 We can apply this to our post-9/11 environment, ... because we have not lost our idealism, love of freedom, civil liberty, and commerce-but we do have a very practical task. As the president told Attorney General John Ashcroft at the time, 'Do not let this happen to America again.'

 There have been two overwhelmingly important votes in the last four and a half years regarding the Constitution, ... One, on Sen. Ashcroft when he was up for attorney general, and today's vote with respect to John Roberts. On both votes, Sen.
