Like a spoiled child...

Lucky me... I have the honor of being 'represented' by Congressman James Sensenbrenner. He's one of the guys behind the misnamed Patriot Act. He chairs the House Judiciary Committee.

The other day he cut short testimony and generally acted like an ass -- banging his gavel down and shutting off the microphones in the middle of testimony. Clearly, a man out of control and out of touch.

Here's the highlight reel of the Congressman's latest loss of composure. If you think he's out of line, please call his office and leave a message at 202-225-5101 or email him at sensenbrenner@mail.house.gov If you want, you can cut and paste the following simple statement:

Congressman Sensenbrenner,

Your recent behavior as Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee requires an apology. Your actions were out of line and your statements were uncalled for.

Respectfully

Urgh. I hate the Patriot Act. I especially feel bad for the librarians. Of all people to pick on, why librarians?

Don't feel so bad, we in Illinois have Denny Hastert AND Henry Hyde... though hopefully Hyde retires soon.

Patriot Act = Fear incarnate to control your population. They'll renew it anyway by scaring the pants off the "security" moms (as they're now calling them)...
