Sometimes you need to check a thing for "truthiness" before just sending it
along.

Faced with a looming vote on a planned one-year extension of special powers
authorized in the USA PATRIOT Act, the Obama White House did not object or
propose reforms, as the president vowed to do as a candidate. 

The Obama administration instead asked Congress ***to grant those powers for
an additional three years.***

As a US Senator and candidate for the presidency, Barack Obama never
actually argued for a repeal of the Bush administration's security
initiatives. Instead, he's consistently argued for enhanced judicial
oversight and a pullback on the most extreme elements of the bill, such as
the use of National Security Letters to search people's personal records
without a court-issued warrant.

While many in his own party opposed the PATRIOT Act outright, as president
Obama has said repeatedly that the emergency measures remain a valuable tool
for law enforcement engaged in national security prerogatives.

On Tuesday, ahead of a House vote to reauthorize the PATRIOT Act for another
year, the White House did something unexpected: they asked for even more.

A prepared statement issued Tuesday afternoon said that President Obama
"would strongly prefer enactment of reauthorizing legislation that would
extend these authorities until December 2013.

	TAKE A STAND and STOP using Google products since they are getting
into bed
	with Obama and his liberal-progressive, commu-socialist government.
Start
	using search engines like Yahoo and other products.  What's baffling
is
	Obama and the Democrats don't want the Patriot Act renewed because
it
	infringes into our privacy, but he has no problem with Google and
other
	private companies climbing into bed with him so they can track
everything we
	do in daily life.
