Trust me, its here forever.

Just like TIA and TIPS ... whoops, those got nuked. What is done can also be undone - and, with sunset provisions, it won't take an override of a presidential veto to eventually get rid of these provisons - hence the need to not allow this action of making the Patriot Act permanent to happen.

What's the suggestion, not vote for the GOP as a whole in the next election? They know they can do quite a bit and we'll still vote for them long before we'll vote for a leftist.
