The Patriot Act has kept its teeth.

“This new world we live in is going to force us to have some constraints.” So said Rep. Zach Wamp, R-Tenn, as he and 209 other patriots — in the new sense of the word — voted to leave the nefarious Patriot Act as it is, so the government keeps its power to spy on us. And I believe the gentleman from Tennessee is right. We’re forced to have constraints, we’re forced to lose our liberty, we’re forced to betray the legacy of our nation and our veterans. Because we’ve elected idiots and cowards to Congress. So it goes.

Shame!
