He's one sick guy, and so is the congress (90-4). I think they did a deal with this and the ending of the possibility of making the Patriot permanent.

Shadowy evil threatens our democracy
Bush's ironically named "Patriot Act" and its successor will undermine the rights of citizens in ways that would make earlier fascist governments smack their foreheads for not thinking of it first. This will become more obvious as Bush's minions begin to pry into the affairs of regular citizens....
