He will get a pass on this from his base.
So how many leftists will abandon Obama when he extends the Patriot Act? Probably none.
in other words, with knowledge of how the constitution should work, knowledge of its weak points... how can he furthur undermine it.
He’ll use it in a fishy way.

What a fraud he is.
He doesn’t need a pass.
“Doublethink is the power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one’s mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them....To tell deliberate lies while genuinely believing in them, to forget any fact that has become inconvenient, and then, when it becomes necessary again, to draw it back from oblivion for just so long as it is needed, to deny the existence of objective reality and all the while to take account of the reality which one denies all this is indispensably necessary. Even in using the word doublethink it is necessary to exercise doublethink. For by using the word one admits that one is tampering with reality; by a fresh act of doublethink one erases this knowledge; and so on indefinitely, with the lie always one leap ahead of the truth.” — Orwell
Sorry BOZO, Joe the Plumber has more real expertise in constitutional law than you.
“...his past expertise in constitutional law...”
I’m still laughing.
Well, of course, why would warrantless searches and seizures bother Resident Soetoro?

Democrats Threaten Patriot Act
Ronald Kessler
Tuesday, Oct. 31, 2006
WASHINGTON — FBI agents and CIA officers will tell you that their single most important tool for hunting down terrorists and avoiding another 9/11 attack is the Patriot Act. Yet the Patriot Act will likely be the first law the Democrats will try to eviscerate if they gain control of Congress.
This year alone, the Democrats overwhelmingly voted five times to kill the Patriot Act. When that didn’t work, they filibustered. Last December, after the vast majority of Senate Democrats voted against renewing the Patriot Act, their minority leader, Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nev., boasted to a cheering crowd of political supporters, “We killed the Patriot Act.”
(but NOW it`s ok...)
The Patriot Act needs to go. There are better ways to protect freedom than stomping on the 4th. The amendments were put in place by our founding fathers for a reason, to protect “we the people”. It doesn’t matter if Bush put this in place it is still anti-freedom.
Good for government masters, but not good for free people.
Close the border then we’ll talk.
Exactly. If there is no will to close the border then there is no serious intention of dealing with terrorism. It’s about accruing power to the federal government. Fascism.
Got me too, really got me....keeled over laughing...this idiot has probably never read the constitution..

I hope no one was expecting differently on this.
