    Default Patriot Act Extension Fails

    http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...020806345.html

    The White House said in a statement Tuesday that it "does not object" to extending the three Patriot Act provisions until December.

    I thought they extended provisions recently in a regular vote and they just failed the quickvote or something?

    We still do work to counteract animal attacks, so that line doesn't do much good.
