Patriot Act four more years

Today, congress just passed this act for another four years against money launderers, terrorists and any other person they feel they need to control. I have my own personal opinion and hope to be able to write tomorrow more about how I feel about it. Its late but from what I saw, there was very little debate on the floor of both houses of congress on this before it was passed. Now it is now on to President Obama for his signature. 

Mr. President, do we have a problem?

According to a Yahoo News article, a computer generated a code name for our dear Mr. President when he went to Ireland to retrace his Irish ancestry before his great grandfather left for the United States of America. What makes this so funny is the name that was chose was so appropos to his personal demeanor.

The name that was chosen for him was "smart alec."

I wish the president the best on his upteenth joy ride at presidential expense to some foreign function that really could be done after he leaves office.
