But what about all of the thousands of proven instances of horrible civil rights violations due to the Patriot Act? Hundreds? Dozens? er ... never mind!!
Senator Hillary "FBI FILES" Clinton has some nerve opposing this legislation. She spits on privacy rights.

Governmental power greatest threat, Hagel says
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1541686/posts
WASHINGTON - Republican Sen. Chuck Hagel of Nebraska said Thursday that a proposed renewal of the anti-terror law known as the Patriot Act would weaken Americans' civil rights and that he will back a filibuster today if the Senate tries to pass the bill.

4 Republicans. You can't really credit Democrats as they're standing against it mainly based on partisanship. But only 4 lousy Republicans. And probably not even the few conservatives that are left in the party. That's it. Simply pitiful.

The last remaining U.S. independent counsel, David Barrett, after spending $21 million over 10 years, on Jan. 12 finally will close down his investigation of former Housing Secretary Henry Cisneros' lying to FBI investigators about hush money paid to an ex-mistress. The political significance is that the Barrett report's shocking allegations of high-level corruption in the Internal Revenue Service and Justice Department are likely to be concealed from the public and from Congress.

The left really timed the leaks about spying on American citizens well, didn't they? Takes away from all the wonderful news from Iraq yesterday.

Tony had a great article today about how the left just can't admit when there's good news anywhere in the world under a Republican president.
Reid sounds like a teenager whining that he's been grounded during spring break.
