The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Maybe I'm confused but can someone explain how the government under President Obama spying under the Patriot Act is any different than them doing under Bush?

Is this not covered under PA? (Not saying I agree with PA and was worried about it way back.)

If it's not different, how is anyone "whistleblowing?"

I feel like the GOP and media cry "scandal" so much I don't believe them ever. (And hope they're all eaten by a wolf! Lol)
