One fine point that kinda bothers me.......Obama did NOT sign this bill himself. He used the "autopen" ,a machine, to do it for him. Does that mean he can claim that "he" did not sign this bill???????????????????
The idiot in the white house supports this abuse of power bill.
He's been telling us for years about how bad this bill is.
Too bad he's now supporting the PA.... it should be repealed.
you guys might want to actually do a little research into who wrote the patriot act, and when they did it. it was in fact joe biden that wrote the basic act after the oklahoma city bombing in 1995. it was passed in a bipartisan manner in 2001. a little light reading for you;
Hmmmm......wonder why you're the only person from Sarah Palin's home town to defend the Patriot act?
Do you have insights into this topic that the rest of don't??
As normal his insights come for not knowing anything.
Part of the Patriot Act was ruled unconstitutional. There are IG reports listing thousands of times it's been abused. And most important lawsuits can't be brought challenging the Constitutionality because the government will not let the facts of the cases come to light ...sighting government "national security" claims.
as i said, biden wrote the basic act in 1995. it was introduced by daschle in 2001, but the fact remains that biden authored the original act that the 2001 bill was based on.

Sen. Biden did cosponsor the bill that Sen. Daschle introduced, along with 24 other cosponsors. If you want to believe Sen. Biden wrote the bill six years prior to when it was introduced by Sen. Daschle, I do not see what difference it makes.

all i know is that biden is the one claiming to have written the basic bill in 1995. until you can refute that claim, i will choose to believe that, since the evidence points in that direction.

Therein is the problem. Sen. Biden is notorious for plagiarizing the work of others. So if he claims he wrote it, then it was most likely written by someone else. In either case, what difference does it make who wrote the bill? It has been amended several times and is now law.
They call for o ethig and if a attack comes will take quite the opposite view o blame. That is noraml really for a article from a liberal newspaper. Notice how easy it was for Obam to vote against raise the deficit ubnder Bush. Then now things change when you are responsible ;not just makig political points against the oppostion.I find it hard to argue with success with no further attacks since 9-11 and certainly the pail compared to those in WWII;when there was little chnace of a attack on the mainland.
My insight comes from actually reading the law. Try it sometime, it is a lot better than spouting ambiguous platitudes out of ignorance.
I wondered about motivation not insight.
