Why am I not surprised:
"Under White House prodding, a House panel on Thursday approved legislation
to further expand the government's ability to cut money flows to terrorist
networks. A parallel bill is part of Bush's sweeping anti-terrorism package
in the Senate.
The 62-1 vote by the House Financial Services Committee sent the measure to
the full House. The lone dissenting vote came from Rep. Ron Paul (news - bio
- voting record), R-Texas, a staunch libertarian."

| (...) flows" doesn't mean it's a GOOD bill, or even that cutting money flows is what is going to be done. We have seen a LOT of 97-0 and 426-1 kind of votes lately, after rather little or no debate. Personally, John Ashcroft scares the jeepers out (...)
