in my lifetime.
I'm not holding my breath about it staying out of government but if the most unconstitutional piece of legislation in US history stays off the books I'll sign up to become a democrat this year.
They will renew it this week when they hold the vote that only needs a simple majority.
Sad.
They are very likely to renew it.
They will do so without any needless "rule" requiring a ridiculous super-majority.
Wonderful!
Excellent.
As it should be.
Terrific.
GREAT!
And yes, I am serious.
There is not one single solitary rational argument against it.
Another instance of there being no difference between Republican and Democrat, they can hold hands and dance around the Patriot Act, just like they can with every other major issue.
