Now, ever so quietly, the Obama administration is working with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi to sneak reauthorization of the Patriot Act through without creating a stir among liberty-minded Americans.

The Patriot Act, One of the things Obama said he would eliminate during his campaign. Now they want to renew it and Obama is endorsing it. Don’t let them get away with it twice. The Patriot Act has done nothing to guard against terrorism but can and has been used to harass our own citizens and rob us of freedoms , like the freedom of speech. They can monitor all your private mail, telephone calls, e-mail, Track where you go, what you do, who you speak to, all in the name of national security.

It looks like 3 main provisions that are expiring but we should demand repealment of the entire unconstitutional “law”.

Insiders have said that Harry Reid plans to sneak the Patriot Act re-authorization through the Senate as soon as they come back into session as part of a massive $85 billion special interest giveaway as a “Jobs Bill.”

This bill is loaded with pork barrel spending and pay-offs to favored senators, union bosses and big government advocacy groups, and is itself another nail in the coffin of America’s economic stability.

That’s why your voice added to the petition below and your opposition to this outrage are critical.)

Liberty Petition
Petition to Senator Max Baucus & Senator Jon Tester

Whereas: Giving up Liberty for Security is a false choice, and causes us to lose both; and

Whereas: American citizens are entitled to 4th Amendment protections against secret searches, National Security Letters, and warrantless searches and wiretaps; and

Whereas: Law enforcement and national security can adequately do their jobs without accessing the private information of innocent, law-abiding citizens; and

Whereas: The misnamed Patriot Act violates our constitutional rights and takes away the very freedom we are claiming to protect from terrorists; and

Whereas: The Patriot Act gives too much power, shrouded in too much secrecy, to government agencies;

Therefore: I urge you to uphold your oath to the Constitution and your duty to protect the rights of your constituents by voting and working for the defeat of the Patriot Act at every opportunity.

Don’t sit back and do nothing, only to complain later. Here we have a chance to stop them before it can come up for a vote. If enough people call and show up to protest then we may actually be able to get rid of the Patriot Act for good, and restore some of our lost liberties as American citizens.
