Imagine you’re the president.  You’ve waged a war despite the naysaying and obstructionist policies of the rest of the world and come out on top.  Your approval ratings are high.  As long as the country’s economy doesn’t go completely to hell in the next year, you’ve got a lock on the 2004 election.

So, what do you do next?  How about pissing off one of your major constituencies?  One that is single-mindedly dedicated to a single issue.  One that votes.  One with an advocacy organization that has 5 million members.

It was unlikely that the law would get renewed.  All you had to do was shut your mouth and just wait for September, 2004 and do nothing.  But no, you just had to step on the Presidential wang with your golf spikes, didn’t you?

I didn’t vote for you in 2000, but I was giving you the benefit of the doubt for 2004 (provided that you didn’t support Patriot II or try to make the Patriot act permanent).  If this nonsense continues I will simply sit out the elections or vote for someone else as a protest.
