Librarians Push Against the Patriot Act

http://www.schoollibraryjournal.com/article/CA6709017.html?nid=2413&source=link&rid=17299713

My biggest disappointment in the Obama administration to date is their decision to encourage the Patriot Act to renew. And since both my senators and my rep are crazy -- er, Republicans -- I have no way to buck this trend except to say: Go, Librarians!

My biggest disappointment is their continued enabling of torture and their protection of those who have tortured in our name.

I'd love to know this administration's thinking because I don't believe they didn't think hard about continuation.

I haven't given up on that one yet. I think they're just trying to control how much comes out how fast. Cus, you know -- we're not going to forget about this one. Never.

I've given up on the Patriot Act.
