Oh man that bad press for Obama administration just doesn't stop. Sounds like what they're doing isn't legal while the administration defends it.


The Patriot Act allows the federal government to get records from businesses but Mr. Sensenbrenner said it was to be used sparingly, and only if there was a specific investigation. Mr. Sensenbrenner said the FBI application for the Verizon records doesn’t meet those criteria.
He also said the Justice Department misled Congress over how it was using the business records tool.

I do not believe the released FISA order is consistent with the requirements of the Patriot Act,” Sensenbrenner wrote. “How could the phone records of so many innocent Americans be relevant to an authorized investigation as required by the Act?”

Intentions are nice but we all know the government will take those intentions and wipe their ass with them. The Patriot Act is one of the worst pieces of legislation to come out in years.

yet the righties on this board rejoiced in replacing the only man to vote against it with a tea partier who propped up his failing business with government bailouts.

which would lead a person to believe that this thread is meaningless partisan hackery from an OP who is severely butthurt.

i blame the clowns for his aching back side.
