You are right no doubt. I have supported Patriot with the proviso that it be limited to the war and reviewed periodically.
Patriot in the hands of another Reno or worse would be a disaster.

By the DoJ's own admission, PATRIOT is regularly used in money laundering cases, fraud cases, kidnapping cases, and many other crimes that have absolutely nothing to do with the war. My support for PATRIOT ended when I found out what it allowed and what it's being used for. 365 communities and counties, several major cities, and four states would seem to agree with me - each having passed resolutions either condemning parts/all of PATRIOT, or outright refusing to allow local/state government employees to make use of or help others make use of PATRIOT provisions.

Nothing like having it both ways huh? hahahaha, you are very foolish if you think government will not use every tool it has to consolidate all power unto itself. Too bad we no longer have a Constitution to restrain government.
