Left and right agree: Bush has eroded our civil liberties too much

Okay, it is not fair to say this is purely left vs. right, just because most political debates in our country today are framed that way, any more than the Arab-Israeli conflict during the Cold War was a matter of communists vs. the west. But the Goldwater Institute, which is generally conservative leaning with a strong libertarian streak, is in agreement with the American Civil Liberties Union, generally perceived as being liberal, but again, really they are very libertarian. Both groups agree the Bush Administration has gone too far in restricting the civil rights and liberties of Americans in the past 6 years, through activities like spying on Quakers.
