Run Away!
It seems just a little while ago that the PATRIOT Act was, for Democrats, the thin end of the wedge for an evil Big Brother type of government and the NSA foreign terrorist interception program was the Democrats' ticket to impeaching the President.
My, how some things can change. Yesterday, the Senate killed, at least for now, further investigation into the NSA program and cleared the way for long term renewal of the PATRIOT Act 96-3. Even Harry "We killed the PATRIOT Act" Reid (D-NV) voted against Russ Feingold's proposed changes.
I guess the Democrats are realizing how little traction they were getting with their opposition actually to trying to win the war against militant Islamicism.
