Well done, Rand Paul. The faster we rid ourselves of the Patriot Act, the better.

Paul is interested in ridding only one section.

True. The data is available to local police departments. Local bosses behind local politicians can bribe to get the data and use it to make plans for robbing their neighbors.

He is probably right on this one issue. Other than that I really don’t like him.

In all due respect to you 2DV, why do you refer to Rand as a ‘nut’? He’s trying to secure what’s left of our Constitution and our liberty, is he not?

I’ve read various places that in all the years the PA has been around, the authorities cannot point to one time it thwarted a terrorist attack. To my knowledge nobody has refuted that claim.

Has McCain EVER been right about a single issue?

Seems like Paul has him beat.

Yes, I guess you are right. Paul has McCain beat. That is not saying a lot. But I suppose it is something.

Well, I thought about it some more and I suppose McCain has been right on an issue or two also. He is just so maddening in so many ways and seems to delight aligning with the democrats that I really can’t stand him. All that campaign finance reform garbage was just horrible. He has a real penchant for tyranny.

Because he's a nut? He may be a little bit better at camouflaging it than his father, but they're pretty much one in the same. If you think the USA is responsible for 9/11 or that the other Republicans created ISIS, feel free to support that crazy fool.

The Patriot Act should have been nuked from outer space but it looks like they will replace it with the USA Freedom Act. Not a perfect bill but better than we had. Regaining lost freedom is hard to do.

Thank You Rand Paul for fighting hard to restore our constitutional rights.

McCain is a psycho, as are a great many members of Congress.

Term Limits would eliminate this problem.

Paul and Walker can now point to actual achievements, as can Cruz.

At the end of the day, the spooks are going to do whatever they want to, regardless of any law that Congress passes.

That was Snowdens point.

There are no consequences for the apparatchik when they violate our Constitutional rights.

Without consequences, the violations will continue.

We had some really hilarious pictures of McCain back in the CFR days. I don’t have them anymore.

Evil flourishes when . . . .

On the flip side, only the evil are doing anything now.
