As the fear of domestic terror grows in the wake of the attacks in London, congressional Democrats have an answer.
Vote against the Patriot Act.
Lessen our abiility monitor these savages living among us. Make it harder for law enforcement to identify and track them. Make it next to impossible to listen to their conversations, monitor their Internet usage. Let them roam free, for we would never want to infringe on our precious civil libertries. That would be un-American!
Kevin at Rant Me a River points out,
78% of House Democrtas vote against renewal of The Patriot Act while 94 % of Republicans vote in favor of renewal.
Notwithstanding the inability to show one instance of alleged abuse of the powers granted by the Act, or the failure of the safeguards built into it, Nancy Pelosi joins the ACLU in condemning the bill. “The bill before us fails to assure accountability,” said Pelosi. Of cousre, when you voted for it four freaking years ago, it was satisfactory, but now THOSE SAME PROVISIONS are a threat to our civil liberties.Too stupid to work, too lazy to steal? Get elected to Congress.
