I say that if Bush signs it, then he is either STUPID, or wants to throw the election.

Have to agree. (Think it is the former, however.)

Whether he has to sign is UNIMPORTANT!

What is important is that the ban has a 10 year SUNSET clause.

The Powers That Be want extensions to the PATRIOT act, set to SUNSET in 2005.

In view of the SHAMEFUL attempt by the Administration to nullify the AWB Sunset, in my view, the FEDGOV cannot be trusted with ANY more "powers".

Thus, I will oppose the Patriot act in all of its extensions, and INSIST on strict enforcement, against said FEDGOV, of the Bill of Rights!

Enough is ENOUGH!!!
