Aren’t these the people who threw their heads back and howled at the Patriot Act?

People on this very forum sang the praises of the "Patriot" Act back when Jorge Bush rammed it through Congress. A few of us were concerned about what a dictator would do with those powers (I was thinking Hilldebeast was a shoo-in at that time).

It really sucks to be right sometimes.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

These are also the people who says there is no War On Terror.
America will never get its freedom back until DHS is dismantled.

Yes, and the hypocrites want to go well beyond the Patriot Act. In fact, they want to control the patriots, and not terrorists, who they see are a threat to their socialist power base.

Nope these are the people, along with RINOs, who passed it against the warnings of people like Bob Barr, Dick Armey, Butch Otter, Ron Paul, Paul Weyrich, and others.

Some leftist blogs were against it but leftist politicians always loved it. Clinton tried to pass it in 1995 under a different name but couldn’t get it past enough Republicans. The Patriot Act was Janet Reno’s and Eric Holder’s wet dream.

Some of us here on FR warned that people here weren’t going to like the Patriot Act and other such laws when a Democrat regime had those powers, but few listened.

Yeah, and the so called "conservatives" who are so damned stupid they think that tyranny is ok as long as it has an (R) by it should have been leading the charge.

Your breathless sense of terror at tyranny seems a bit misplaced after 8 years of enabling Bushco to run rampant over the Constitution.

NOTE:be aware that this may not be directed at YOU the OP individually at all, but at the majority of "conservatives" who have cheerfully enabled and defended the Bushco tyrants in enabling a large government to "protect" us. This stuff is PRECISELY why we were yelling our heads off about this stuff under Bush.
