… The Patriot Act will be re-authorized more or less in full

As predictable as ever, the battle that brought together a handful of libertarian-minded Republicans and a blinking “hey. We have something here” party whipping for the Democratic caucus to unite behind Feingold — falls apart completely and it all dwindles to a handful of “nay” votes.

The Three:

Russ Feingold. Robert Byrd. Jim Jeffords.

Well I guess when Larry Craig’s principles come from ignoring the current presidential malfeasance and looking to the day a Democrat will be in power to commit malfeasances, I guess you can expect nothing less. As soon as the fig-leaf is put in place to claim something happened with the bill that didn’t, naturally. Do I need to tell you where the Senate is taking its probe into Bush’s wire-tapping? Nay.
