Excellent article describing the boneheadedness of USA PATRIOT in detail.
My personal favorite section, a quote from Rep. Ron Paul:
What does Paul believe the nation's Founding Fathers would think of this
law? "Our forefathers would think it's time for a revolution. This is why
they revolted in the first place." Says Paul with a laugh, "They revolted
against much more mild oppression."

Unfortunately, I'm afraid we Americans have grown to lazy and fat for a
revolution. OTOH, things aren't that bad yet; the problem is once they
get there it will be exceedingly difficult to breakdown big brother, it's
much easier to fix the problem now. A stitch in time saves nine...
