Patriot's Final Act in 2005

Senate agreed with House for a 1 month extension. After trying to bully the Senate and hinting he'd rather not sign an extension than let the bill expire, Bush signed the extension. Calling the shots these days seems to be Wisconsin's Republican Sensenbrenner. His great quote for wanting to change the extension from 6 months to 1 (no, it's not so there wouldn't be time for actually debating the issue--no, he'd never argue that.) ... "They came pretty close to wrecking everybody's Christmas. I didn't want to put the entire Congress in the position of them wrecking everybody's Independence Day."

Yes indeed. The Act will come up for debate again before it can actually be debated because Sensenbrenner doesn't want to ruin our Independence Day. Hey Jimmy Boy, thanks a lot. I'd much rather you just ruin the Constitution instead.
