Old Salt, great post.

It seems to me that the Patriot act, in it’s new improved version, is just yet another attempt by the Hard Left to con and scam the American People into relinquishing their rights to the Nanny Police State, or to some foreign enemy. In the last few years, we have been bombarded by an onslaught of a long list of leftist cons to damage America, among them Obamacare, the TooBigTooFail Bank bailouts, R2P, START II, Motor Voter, Global Warming, Mediscare, and now this. It’s time to tell our representatives enough is enough. Go back to our fundamental values and rights and clean the house of everything else. It’s very sad that our Republican Leadership is again not leading on a key issue and is again not protecting our rights, so maybe it’s time to clean them out too.
