52. Under Clinton several major attacks were prevented without
any of this abuse to ordinary Americans. More than under most administrations in recent times. Because the Intel Community was allowed to do its job.

And Obama did not have to 'roll back' anything. All he had to do was NOT to increase the abusive practices. Enhanced pat-downs and Naked scanners were introduced by this administration.

But, they WILL be rolled back in spite of this administration or any other. In just the six months since these egregious abuses of our rights were introduced, 11 states, outraged by them and in response to public outrage, along with Congress where several members have expressed outrage also, all have introduced or are planning to, legislation to make these abusive practices illegal.
