The Justice Department has indicated that the Obama administration is in support of renewing a pair of controversial sections of the USA Patriot Act that expire later this year. The provisions that will expire in December include Section 206, that allows "roving" wiretaps so FBI agents can tap multiple phones or computers (with court authorization) that a specific person (target) may use.

It's not what Obama does or doesn't do, it's how he says it.

I saw a bunch of anti-war organizations in my campus is holding a seminar, “Is it okay if 0bama does it?” I have to give a point to those people for at least being consistent at what they want.

Although they will still vote for the commie pig usurper 0bozo for two reasons.....he's black (well 1/2 black, his white half doesn't matter) and he's a socialist demoRAT pig. Left wing politics IS the religion for these morons. They would vote 100% for 0bozo if he committed rape, incest & murder on national TV. All that matters is that they vote for their demoRAT socialists right down the line, no matter how disgusting & vile the candidate is. Otherwise how could Barney Frank or fatso Ted Kennedy or crook John Conyors keep getting elected cycle after cycle.

Patriot Act got tacit approval yesterday from Schmuck Choomer, too. He was pish=toshing the rumors of imminency of trouble from the Afghan Queens 5. “Not true”, he said. “OUR surveillance and detection measures have improved SO MUCH, we are able to nip these things long before they become a danger.”

Just like we’ve been saying: war and drones and surveillance and interrogation are bad when conservatives are in charge; but when liberals reign, all is rosy.

I could hardly believe my ears.
