LIE OF THE WEEK

DIRTY HARRY

"Let's be clear about who's killing the Patriot Act—President Bush and the Republican Leadership. Twice last week, a Bi-partisan group of Senators tried to move forward on a three-month extension, but instead of joining us, the President and the Republican Leadership decided they would rather see the bill expire. It's time for the President to put politics aside and national security first. The President and the Republican leadership should join us in supporting the Patriot Act and protecting Americans."

--- Senator Harry Reid, (D-Searchlight)

It was only about three weeks ago Dirty Harry gleefully pronounced , "We killed the Patriot Act!" to a group of clapping supporters. See these news accounts, Drudge, The Washington Times, and The Political Teen has the video here.
