The Patriot Act (largely the work found unconstitutional <so far> was by Viet Dhin).

Senator Feingold really ripped his opponent, Tim Michels, apart on the Patriot Act in a Wisconsin debate last night.

Michels is largely running on his 12 years of service as a US Army Ranger-imo a militarist Bushie.

The Patriot Act should be abolished-it is unconstitutional and unhelpful in the war on terrorism.

Thank you, Russ Feingold, for voting against it (The sole US Senator to oppose it, then-I pray that's changed).
:thumbsup: :dem:

1. Michels hasn't even read the USA Patriot Act...
that part was hilarious - Feingold mopped the floor with him. Michels was smug and smirky throughout the debate, too - another all hat and no cattle puke.

2. I am so jealous of you guys!
Feingold is a treasure. I loved his commercial about asking the hard questions that somebody posted the other day.

Ethical, and with a sense of humor.
