buffalo. stephen, democratic line. caller: i really think that the patriot act is something that is good to die. i think we all have to remember that this bill was passed in the heat of the moment right after september 11. 10 years later -- that is why it is failing. if you really look at it, you know, this law allowed a lot of people in very high places to circumvent him -- with search and seizures. the truth is, they are listening to your calls. they are uncovering crimes that are not just terrorism. it is all kinds of crimes. and regular american citizens are having their privacy invaded in order to supposedly counteract terrorism. it is just not right. i think a lot of people have seen that. that is why the patriot act is almost a joke about in other countries and in this country. host: all right. the picture that was reauthorized in 2006. judy patriot act was reauthorized in 2006. caller: i and glad the patriot act got shot down. i was very young when 9/11 happened, and i looked at the patriot act when i got older
