Perhaps the most galling part of the vote was that not a single privacy provision was added to the bill, despite Congressional Democrats promising such reforms.
Nice to see you're getting all that "change" you voted for.

The Deceiver even wears a smile on his face while re-signing this Treason Act! This time Obama actually does remind me of The Joker.

There are not many examples in history when a ruling body gives up power for the benefit of the governed. More often than not, the people are eventually forced to take it back...or die trying.

Politicians are Addicted to power and the Un-Patriot Act gives them more power than they should constitutionally have. Their should be a rehab for politicians that get addicted to the power and they should be required to attend once a year with the results published before any election.

Short changed is more like it. What a pathetic display it's time to sue the Democratic party for false advertising. I mean seriously I was promised "change I could believe in" We all were right? Instead we get more of the same. And the scary thing is the republicans are even more useless. They run around like a lot chickens with thier heads cut off spouting about what a radical/socialist Obama is. The time has come for a new political party that seeks to bring together conservatives and liberals who care about solving this countries problems. And not just winning the next election.

My favorite part is that they did it by voice vote so no one will know just who exactly is betraying their party.
