The patriot act tears the constitution to shreds giving dictatorial power to
the neocons. Madison is spinning in his grave and Washington is in tears. The
bill of rights no longer exists. The 14th amendment will be the next to go.And
the Fereral governement was never bigger and more powerful than it is today
under the neocons.

And yet it was voted in unanimously in the Senate - (All the Senate
Democrats voted for it, including John Kerry), and overwhelmingly in
the House (Including 90% of the Democrats). Should power be trusted
to those so easily deluded, then? (If indeed you aren't being
hyperbolic)

The Congress, after all, is where Bills are submitted - by Congressmen
(Congresspeople? Electred Legislatural Representatives of the Populous
and the Various States, then) and voted upon. The President, or, ofr
that matter, the rest of the Executive Branch, don't draft or submit
bills, bills, (They do, of course, ask some sympathetic type in
Congress to do so), son't vote on them, and have no seats on the
COnference Comittees that sort out/rewrite the differences in the
versions passed by the House & Senate. Anything that occurred from
this proccess to your disfavor happened with the full complicity and
cooperation of the Democrats.
