WASHINGTON -- The Senate on Thursday gave its blessing to the renewal of the USA Patriot Act after adding privacy protections designed to strike a balance between civil liberties and the government's power to root out terrorists. The 89-10 vote marked a bright spot in President Bush's troubled second term as his approval ratings dipped over the war in Iraq and his administration's response to Hurricane Katrina. Renewing the act, Bush and congressional Republicans said, was key to preventing more terror attacks in the United States. The House was expected to approve it next week and send it to the president. "This bill will allow our law enforcement officials to continue to use the same tools against terrorists that are already used against drug dealers and other criminals, while safeguarding the civil liberties of the American people," Bush said. Illinois Democrats Barack Obama and Dick Durbin voted for the act.
So did Hillary and McCain.
Yes, they're both horrible. But isn't it ironic that Obama's vote allowed for the continued abuse of Habeas Corpus, and now he's making its restoration a central piece of his campaign?
I look for Obummer to take a dive if and when he loses Pa. The odds would now seem to favor for Hillary as the establishment dems are backing her and Obama has expressed his disdain for the rural white trash.
I didn't realize until a few hours ago that he voted to continue Bush's Patriot Act. I also learned today he was on the board of the Joyce Foundation, which has connections to George Soros. It's mission is to remove guns from citizens, among other things. Selections have finally come down to the lesser of two turd and only sustain b/c folks still participate.
