We the People: Get a warrant

A new Rasmussen poll (found via Daily Kos) indicates that a large majority of Americans like their surveillance accompanied by a warrant.

Sixty-four percent (64%) of American adults agree that a search warrant should be required before the government can ask Internet providers to turn over customer records. A Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey found that just 16% disagree and 20% are not sure.

The poll results come on the heels of a federal court decision last week that struck such searches from the USA PATRIOT Act as unconstitutional.

The people are not giving in to the fearmongering of the Bush crowd.
