What the people who wrote, voted for, and the people who extended the patriot act don't seem to get, is that they are now the Taliban. The President, the Congress, the Senate, and all the Judiciary can now take a man's life (old, weak, sick drunks are cannon fodder for inmates in our draconian dungeons we call prisons). Under the Patriot Act, the Penal System is the fastest growth industry in the US. How unAmerican, how home of the brave, how land of the free. Shame on our government. I guess they have issues; they cannot see their own Talibanism. They forgot for whom they work. Anybody who supports the Patriot Act has not my vote. We still unelect Judges. Pasadena needs the whole lot replaced. So does the house, senate, and Presidency, unless they yield to the will of the people.

Put a dent in hunger, create some jobs, and put some returning vets and their extended families to work. Not base the Olive Tree's "food" or "fertilizer" on petroleum-based "fertilizer." Call the White House and demand withdrawal, no more Judges' stoning American's to death with hard prison time. McCarthyism on steroids. Witch burning.

The witch-hunt and witch burning of American Citizens must stop. We have McCarthyism right under our noses again, and our media is not even talking about it. We have embedded, censored journalists with no right to free speech. This is not a witch-hunt for one Judge; there should be no national clamor for one scapegoat. Shame on all of us. From Obama on down to every judge, prison turnkey, or cop that has locked up a drunk vet or drunk vet family member for "terrorist threat." National schizophrenia, public bipolar disorder. Shame on us all, we no longer live anywhere but right here in unAmerica.
