Look, the stupid Patriot Act and the Department of Homeland security were a joint failure by Bush and the R's and D's in both houses.

But what you are seeing is a machine politician unfettered by a critical press.

My personal hope is that this takes down his presidency and cripples him for the next three years. And provides a boost to libertarian and small gov't candidates on both sides of the fence.
