Why would the President have to sell the Patriot Act?

The problem with some idiots (in Congress) is that they forgot about the Planes hitting the buildings.

I wish we had a DVD of the whole uncensored WTC 9-11 Day, and take it with a portable Player around to some offices in the Sam Rayburn building and make some Senators watch it, and bring Fox News with me to film their reactions.

People should watch that, every few months, just for drill, to keep their head right.

Haven't you noticed? The four Republican senators who joined the filibuster live in places where there is about ten miles between people. Not too many high-rises, for certain. It's a lot easier to be Libertarian in those circumstances. Have these folks forgotten just how much we have to tell the federal government every time we pay income taxes? A lot more than I ever discuss on the telephone, that's for certain!!

Well the simple answer is he has to sell it because they have failed so far to pass it.

If the planes had hit the Capitol and the NY Times building, we'd be having a completely different debate today...

And the anthrax attacks which threatened Congress just as surely as the plane that civilians took down in Shanksville, PA, saving the arses of every senator who was in the building that day. They literally came within minutes of never being able to cast a vote again, and this is how they behave just four years later.

I saved the pictures to my hard drive (and have even had to move them to a new computer) just to remind myself why we are fighting this war and what the consequences could be if we just give up.
