It takes only a few days--at most--to read 1200 pages.

You are a little slow tonight. I stated 30 minutes was MORE time than it took the Demmies to read 1200 pages. In other words, they did not read it.

Has any republican finished reading the Patriot Act that gave Bush dictator like powers?
It's been 7 years and I'm still waiting.

I read it. I opposed it. I made that point clear to my elected representatives.

Note: Obama could have effectively rescinded the Patriot Act by Executive Order. Note also that he just decided to keep the wire taps also. Move along.

Dopo,

Not all Republicans support the PATRIOT Act or making the PATRIOT Act permanent. You should do more research on Jeff Flake, Ron Paul, Mark Sanford, and the Republican Liberty Caucus. These are all Libertarian Leaning Conservatives.

The newest lie: "The nation that built the automobile..." Does Obama really believe the public is that stupid? Does he believe no one knows anything of history?

You should put that in every thread, so nobody can avoid it. You can take over the forum!

Edit: before you actually put it in more, I'm being sarcastic.
But go ahead, whatever floats your boat.

I voted for him and am already sorry. In fact, the fact he refused to withdraw Geithner, the tax criminal, showed me that he was never serious about "change'. More of the same old DC and just another political hack.
