ACLU: "We hope President Bush doesn't plan to infringe freedoms in the name of public health. If we let a pandemic flu destroy civil liberties, the flu has beaten the United States."

President George W. Bush said Tuesday that he was working to prepare the United States for a possible deadly outbreak of avian flu.

If an epidemic appears, he said, he has weighed whether to quarantine parts of the country and whether to employ the military to enforce such a quarantine.
