Only if we tear up the Constitution and the concept of separation of powers upon which it was created and are willing to accept a chief executive who will resort to any illegal and unethical act to support an ideological agenda and justify those actions as necessary to protect us from the terrorist boogeymen.
Oh...and thanks for reminding us all that only Democrats are partisan with the rest of your less than objective and factually dubious observations.

as to the poll question, I assume "violent anti-government protest" means armed insurrection rather than acts of vandalism.
and my answer is NO, not on a FISA vote. There is still room for other forms of protest...particularly at the ballot box in November...or even better, finding a way to get the 65-70% of Americans who disagree with Bush's policies and actions off their apathetic asses and into the streets in massive, peaceful demonstrations across the country between now and November.
but YES, only under the most extreme scenario, like if one year and one day from now, Bush/Cheney refuse to leave the White House in the name of national security.
