Obama and the Patriot Act: Yes We Can Kill the Bill of Rights

Obama waited until Saturday night to renew the Bill of Rights busting Patriot Act. It was set to expire today. Both the Senate and the House signed off on the extension last week. So called privacy protections were dumped when Senate Democrats failed to raise a 60-vote supermajority to pass them. Cast aside were restrictions and greater scrutiny on the governments authority to spy on Americans and seize their records, the Associated Press reports.

The Obama administration wanted to extend the measure because of provisions it says are important in tracking suspected terrorists, including roving wiretaps to track multiple communications devices, Reuters reported on Thursday.

Disappointingly, the governments dangerously broad authority to conduct roving wiretaps of unspecified or John Doe targets, to secretly wiretap of persons without any connection to terrorists or spies under the so-called lone wolf provision, and to secretly access a wide range of private business records without warrants under PATRIOT Section 215 were all renewed without any new checks and balances to prevent abuse, Kevin Bankston wrote last week after the act sailed through Congress.

Instead of tracking terrorists, the bill has been used to track the American people. In 2008, for instance, the Justice Department made 763 requests for sneak-and-peek warrants, but only three of those had to do with terrorism investigations, according to senator Russ Feingold.

Feingold told a Senate Judiciary Committee in September of 2009 that 65 percent of the cases for which sneak-and-peek warrants were used were drug investigations.

The Patriot Act was not designed to be used against supposed terrorists. Its not meant for intelligence, its for criminal cases, Assistant Attorney General David Kris told the Senate Judiciary Committee. So I guess its not surprising to me that it applies in drug cases.

The Patriot Act allows the government to search and seize Americans papers and effects without probable cause to assist terror (drug and other victimless crime) investigations. It prevents a right to a speedy and public trial (ask American Jose Padilla about this one). It discourages freedom of association, freedom of speech (the government may prosecute librarians or keepers of any other records if they tell anyone the government subpoenaed information related to a terror investigation), and the right to legal representation (the government may monitor conversations between attorneys and clients in federal prisons and deny lawyers to Americans accused of crimes).

The act allows the government to abduct citizens and jail them without charge or the ability to confront witnesses against them. It allows the government to hold anybody deemed an unlawful combatant incommunicado forever. It effectively turns America into East Germany or Stalins Russia.

Democrats and moonstruck liberals should be held directly responsible for turning American into a police state. After all, they bought into Obamas yes we can mantra and packed Congress with Democrats who voted last week to extend the Patriot Act.

They should have voted for Ron Paul.

It's about the aliens... isn't it Alex... I know you are a believer... but you don't want to tell us what you think or what you know... I don't blame you... you get enough blow back for what you talk about now, and if you started talking about shape shifters and shit, you'd lose credibility...

It's not that complicated people. Human beings are evil, and they do evil shit. The evil people get in power cause most of you are just fucking retards who enjoy following. Thats why you get banned from internet forums, thats why you make shitty wages, thats why you make to make your bed, go to school/work, and not get sex when you want it.

You are a slave. It's not some sinister demonic crap. Thats just humans being humans. War never changes.
