WASHINGTON, D.C. President George W. Bush’s campaign on Tuesday launched a strongly worded ad charging that after voting for the Patriot Act to fight terrorism, Sen. John Kerry would repeal the legislation.

While wire taps, subpoena powers and surveillances are routinely used against drug dealers and organized crime, Kerry would now repeal the Patriot Act’s use of these tools against terrorists.”
