By a 329-78 vote, the House today followed the Senate in passing legislation that repeals a Patriot Act provision “that grants the Attorney General the authority to make indefinite interim appointments of U.S. Attorneys, who can then serve indefinitely without Senate confirmation.” The Gavel has details and video from the floor debate.
Gonzo's minions are pleading the 5th.
And this excellent comment by Abby strikes me:
There are conspiracy theories and then there are conspiracy theories…
How about this one:
The Patriot Act, a massive piece of complicated legislation was signed into law, in it’s final form, within 45 days of 9/11. That feat is impossible to achieve even in the best of circumstances, let alone at a time when every boss you need to consult is unavailable because the country just suffered the biggest attack on it’s home soil.
So when was it really written and why?
And by whom? As Spudge_Boy later says, the authors of the PNAC documents?
I agree with Jeff Wells about this. Why spend all of our time digging up six year old forensic evidence about 9/11, when the arrogance of the perpetrators is in print for all to see? These aren't superspy criminals we're after, they're corporate aristocrats, lazy, indolent, and clumsy. They like to gloat about their crimes, and all the evidence needs is a little sunlight to grow into an airtight case against them.
