Can the Patriot Act be used on shrub?
I mean, can we hold him to the same scrutiny as that he holds us? Or is there a very conveeeeeeeeeenient provision in there that says shrub doesn't have to be held accountable. You know, like a king?

Like I've heard so many neocons who defend the Patriot Act, "if you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to worry about." Surely shrub is as patriotic as the Patriot Act, right? Surely shrub wouldn't want to say "what is good for the goose is NOT good for the gander," now would he?

3. "If you have nothing to hide you have nothing to worry about"
We've been hearing this from Bushbots since the facts about NSA wiretapping came out.

I'm fortunate enough to not really have to interact with Republicans, so a question for people who do--what are your Bush-loving coworkers saying now?
