Patriot Act Reauthorization
I didn't need my civil liberties anyway


I just got out of a 12 hour markup in the House Judiciary Committee on the Patriot Act. The GOP bill, which passed on a party line vote, would essentially make the expiring sections of the Patriot Act, passed in 2001, permanent. This not only will make it next to impossible for us to obtain any information on the Patriot Act in the future, it totally ignores the many, many abuses of the Act, and the Administration's misuse of its powers since September 11.
