I would ask, isn't this the first time any of the FISA bills--even the predecessor FISA bill or the Protect America Act--have included privacy protections for Americans overseas?

Full equality means enjoying all of the rights that everybody else in the country enjoys. If everybody else in the country enjoys rights one, two, three and four, you have got to enjoy those rights too.
All Americans ought to enjoy civil rights, and whatever the court does today, we are going to move a step closer to everyone enjoying these rights.
Of course, it is exactly the same. It's a right that all Americans have and no reason why gay and lesbian people ought not to have these rights too. These are universal rights.
Well, I think it is. I mean any time a group of people are denied rights and struggle for their rights, that's a civil rights movement.
