"Our support for the Patriot Act does not mean a blank check for the president," said Democratic leader Harry Reid. "What we tried to do on a bipartisan basis is have a better bill. It has been improved."

Sounds like Reid wants it both ways again. Anyone know what his vote was?

The FNC announcer sounded disappointed. Said it passed but it had looked like President Bush was not going to get this done......paraphrasing here.

President Bush wins 89-10 on getting the Patriot Act renewed...yet in typical newspeak, our corrupt old news media will soon be telling us that the President is "weakened."

Yeah, right.

I'm sad to see it renewed. But it will be renewed and made law forever. Government never gives back the power it takes.
