3. Don't agree 100 percent with Rohrbacher but he does say

that the Pat Act needs to be sunsetted when the war ends (this endless war). His saying that *disappointed* NonSensenbrenner.

7. True conservatives rediscovering their principles

The Patriot Act is the crowning acheivement of American Big Government. I think there are some R's out their who actually have principles and are starting to realize this. Little by little, they're waking up to the fact that, from big government and big spending, two things they always accuse Democrats of, there's nothing about * that even remotely resembles conservatism.

Full-on civil war in the GOP is just over the horizon.

9. "Nobody had any complaints about how the provisions were utilitzed"

When there is no discussion on the patriot act, and it's railroaded through Congress, how can complaints be lodged?
