I should have given you notice I was going to repost yours from 12 years ago—but

Reading through comments on leftist sites, a common theme is “FR and tea-baggers were all for the Patriot Act when it first came out”

And I did not recall it being that way at all.

So I went back in time, and found that many here including you, dead, voiced strong dissent with the Bush administration regarding the Patriot Act.

So I posted yours.

Which is a great post.

FReegards.

I appreciate you posting that. If you have a link to the original thread, I'd love to see it.

I was against much of the Patriot Act. I hate giving more power to the government no matter who's in office at the time.

The left talks about hypocrisy, but I remember them screaming bloody murder when the Bush Administration sought to intercept international calls specifically involving a known or suspected terrorist. (International calls have been fair game for all ears since international calls were invented.)

Now, those same humps think its great that Obama's spying on and auditing the Tea Party. They are small minds that embrace illusory temporary victories like they are game changers. But they'll sob about injustice when the pointy stick pokes them.
