Lawmakers and civil rights groups had been pressing the Democratic administration to say whether it wants to preserve the post-Sept. 11 law's authority to access business records, as well as monitor so-called "lone wolf" terrorists and conduct roving wiretaps.

Unh-hunh.
Time to get rid of it.
Kossack heads will explode over this
So when is the Liberal march on Washington?
Agreed... the “war on terror” has been declared over, done, kaput, by those that would use the Patriot Act. They are closing prisoner camps, freeing some, giving others lawyers. Only use for anything in the Patriot Act is nefarious.
Read "anybody we want to wire tap, especially conservatives"
Suckers.
The GOP passed the Pat Act. They would have never have supported a Dem suggesting such legislation.
Now ‘conservatives’ will be against it. It was always gonna be abused by Gov’t. But, too many people had political loyalty instead of knowing history.
I’m just glad conservatives are acting like conservatives again, instead of carrying the water.
Stick it in yer-ear Baraq U Bam Maw, either admit your anti-christ or change your name and then get your illegal ass out of OUR White House...and we really want to know who you have been lodging in the Lincoln bedroom, butt wipe!
The War on Terror has become an War on Protesters.
Come on Birdsbane,
Don’t hold back.
From the way you talk I’m not sure what side you are on.
Do you or no you not care for this marxist punk poser?

Perhaps, but the type of enemy we are against requires such tactics if we wish to stop attacks. It is not a good situation. The law would have to have strong penalties for any non anti-terrorist usage.
Pres GW Bush did a lot of things I do not agree with (borders, immigration, TARP 1, etc), but he was true to his word. He said what he would do, and he did it. You knew where he stood on a position - you may not like it, but you knew. This inspires a level of trust.
Obama has squandered his ‘trust’ on everything from ACORN, his Czars, the automotive takeover, the financial takeover, lies about health and medical takeover and the list goes on and on.
As a people, we need to the President; unfortunately Obama has squandered this basic policy and has accused any who question him of being terrorists, racists and liars.
Now, he is expecting the same level of trust his predecessor had - sorry, ain't gonna get it.
Every time leftists get power,
they use policies intended to protect the citizens from foreign threats
against those citizens who threaten the leftists’ power.
It doesn’t jive.
If the threat of jihad on the homeland is high enough to warrant the Pat Act and other measures, you would think they would at least seal the border.
The same could be said about the period of time between 2002 and 2008... agree?
yes.
I’ve been GOP all my of age life. I was always against the Big Brother so-called Patriot Act. Bad idea right from the start.
...of-age life...
cut me some slack here, my eyes are still puffy and irritated from all the saw dust I made last night in the process of replacing a door in the house
come on where is the outrage from the left...olberdope...madcow...?? where are you...
