Idiot Act to expand?

I think scientists have just discovered the heaviest chemical element ever known: idiotactium. It has no protons, neutrons, or electrons, but it has enough morons to make up for that.

Police in Tennessee are reporting an increase in meth labs after the renewed version of the Patriot Act started requiring allergy sufferers to sign logs every time they buy medicine.

So what are officials planning on doing now? Why, expanding this failed law, of course.

They never learn, do they?

Now they want new laws requiring you to sign a log even to buy liquid pseudoephedrine drugs. This after they kept assuring us over and over again that the laws would only apply to pseudoephedrine in pill form. It's unclear how they think meth cooks may isolate pseudoephedrine from a liquid.

This proves once again that once tyrants are allowed to get one dumb law passed, they inevitably expand their efforts. And that's been the story of America for the past quarter-century.

It works like this: They identify a problem, pass an oppressive law to "fight" it, watch the law fail, and use that as an excuse for even tougher laws. The cycle never ends.

I don't know what it's going to take to stop these right-wing tyrants, but they're out of control.

I'm going to say it now: We need to repeal the Patriot Act - but we particularly need to repeal state and federal laws that punish innocent Americans just for buying over-the-counter allergy medicine to use for its intended purpose.
