Conspiracy to intimidate the Congress of the United States .. pure and simple.
That's what is going on. What are the laws pertaining to such CONSPIRACIES? And what on earth is the PATRIOT ACT for, if not cases like this?

6. 100% correct
and waving the flag they used against the British won't work either. The word is treason.

7. Something needs to be done. If I were in Congress
I'd be scared. I'm not all that brave, especially when it comes to my family.

9. The Patriot Act was designed to nab all enemies, foreign and domestic, junior said was the enemy,
i.e., brown terraists and anyone who opposed/did not support his entire RW PNAC agenda? Just guessing. :-)

12. The PATRIOT Act was written by RWers for use strictly against liberals.
Which is why no RWers have been prosecuted under it AFAIK, and none will be. The FBI investigation will come to naught.
