Their newest lie and amnesia regarding the NSA spying matter has started to amuse me. Ask the average American if they care about this and I'll bet that 70% of them not only don't care but expect the president to use all the powers of his office to do whatever is necessary to protect the country.

Tell me if I've got this right about the current status of the Patriot Act........since the House voted for a 1-month extension yesterday and the Senate voted for a 6-month extension and then went home, there must be a reconciliation between the 2 for the Patriot Act to remain in force, but it is against the rules for such action to take place because the Senate has already stopped meeting.

So my question is what is going to happen to the Patriot Act come Dec. 31 w/no resolution? Looks to me like both houses will HAVE TO cut their Christmas vacation short...tough LOL...in order to provide protection for this country. Is this the corrct "take"?
