Rep. Bernie Sanders of Vermont is preparing to offer an amendment to the annual appropriations bill for the Justice Department that would forbid the FBI from using the Patriot Act [to search] your library and book-buying records without probable cause of any crime or intent to commit a crime.

He's had a pretty amazing career. Runing back, fried-chicken mogul, lefty-independent Congressman. I'd put him on the ten-dollar bill in a flash.

"I predict some very angry posts and notices of canceled subscriptions from people who ...
Me, I give even the devil his due"
translation: I am enlightened.
Now I know where to turn to when I need some wisdom :-)

I predict some very angry posts and notices of canceled subscriptions from people who can't stand the thought of even coincidentally agreeing with Bernie Sanders.

In Sanders's random distribution of stupid decisions, there are bound to be a few outliers of responsibility.
Or, if you give an orangutan unlimited throws at a dartboard, he eventually will hit a bullseye.

he was a prof at my college for a bit. kinda nice in that politican-people-person sorta way.
but dammit. i wanna know if somebody borrowed "catcher in the rye" or "are you there god..." that's where terror starts. in kids reading stuff they "shouldn't"
and the fucking circus goes on...
