Reauthorize the Patriot Act!
"It is said that prior to the attacks of September 11th, our government failed to connect the dots of the conspiracy. We now know that two of the hijackers in the United States placed telephone calls to al-Qaida operatives overseas. But we did not know about their plans until it was too late. So to prevent another attack – based on authority given to me by the Constitution and by statute – I have authorized a terrorist surveillance program to aggressively pursue the international communications of suspected al-Qaida operatives and affiliates to and from America. Previous presidents have used the same constitutional authority I have – and Federal courts have approved the use of that authority. Appropriate Members of Congress have been kept informed. This terrorist surveillance program has helped prevent terrorist attacks. It remains essential to the security of America. If there are people inside our country who are talking with al-Qaida, we want to know about it – because we will not sit back and wait to be hit again."
When he talked about corruption and trafficing, I thought for a moment he was going to mention mexico.

"Reauthorize the Patriot Act"--I remember last year the Dims booed at that line.
Oh come on now!! Get on the Republican train. Conservatism is dead and gone.
If anybody is a threat I say defeat them promptly.
As long as that nation has brought that upon themselves under the rules of just war, fully agree.
If they are not a threat then it really isn't our business to run them out.
Well you can't really eradicate tyranny that way now can you?
Ha, going to go to the "spying"!
