Just how would the patriot act impact you in your personal life? Unless you break the law it fucking won't. I could care less if it stays or goes because id will have no effect on my life whatsoever. You people keep crying about losing our freedom because of Bush because you have no concept of time. He can only serve 2 terms and his final term only has 3 more years so you would do better occupying your time trying to find his replacement and promoting him, her or it. No amount of your bellyaching or crying and moaning is going to get him out of office any sooner. Even if he was impeched and removed from office Chaney would take his place and I don't think you would want that. At no time in history has both a president and vice president ever been impeched at the same time so just don't go there. Now stop crying and get on with life.
