Gonzales defends wiretaps amid protest
http://edition.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/01/24/nsa.strategy/index.html
"Those who would sacrifice liberty for security deserve neither" -- a paraphrase of a quote attributed to Benjamin Franklin -- had been scrawled in capital letters on a sign that required four protesters to hold it up.
