Was I Seeing Things? Norquist On C-Span 2 Bitching About The "Patriot"

Act? Then there was someone from the ACLU (Laura Murphy I think). Man, that was just weird, but maybe I was dreaming.

2. I saw that too

And thought the same thing. Norquist said that all legislation enacted in emergency situations, like after 9/11, should be sunseted in 5 years. That would allow the government to review the law.

I was surprised Norquist came out from underneath Rove's desk to do this press conference, but hopefully it means that the Patriot Act will get fixed.

3. its because the feds are checking on where he got all his arab money

a number of the norquist slush funded/controlled political action groups has been receiving money from arab sources that might be connected with fundamentalist muslim organizations.
