Wave Goodbye to Your Civil Liberties
When your sitting on the toilet? Yup. When you’re getting dressed? Uh huh. When you’re “snuggling” with your sweetheart? You bet your sweet bippy.
What’s this about? Bush can now legally spy on you whenever he feels like. You can thank a Congress full of sheep.
Hope you’re happy, representatives. Mari WILL NOT be voting for those of you who said Yea. That means YOU: Phil English,Jason Altmire (the rep. from Mari’s district), John E. Peterson, Jim Gerlach, Bill Shuster, Chris Carney, Paul E. Kanjorski, John Murtha, Charlie Dent, Joe Pitts, Tim Murphy, and Todd Russell Platts.
However, Mari doesn’t harbor any specific dislike for the representatives from her state that voted Nay. Those would be Robert Brady, Chaka Fattah, Joe Sestak, Patrick Murphy, Allyson Schwartz, Mike Doyle, and Tim Holden.
Representative Altmire, Mari is EXTREMELY disappointed in you. You almost didn’t look like a crook for a second there. Almost.
What do you think?
Did your representative vote Yea?

Damn! I’m glad I don’t live in the US!
I find it quite funny that the law is named “FISA” since that means “farting” in Swedish. Quite fitting name I think.
This is so stupid. Thank God USA is the “Land of the free”.
Haha nice one, I like to know the names of the idiots and the not-so-idiotic people.
@Angelica
You are lucky.
Really? XD That is fitting. And hilarious.
@Jaclyn
More like “Land of the Free Reign of Emperor George II”
This is really ridiculous.
One more reason I’m glad I don’t live in the States.
Woot, Emz is also lucky not to be in the US. But Emz’s farter father lives in Connecticut - Emz no want farter spying!
Emz doesn’t even know who her representative is… whooops.
@Kaisa
You’re also very lucky.
@Emz
Haha, you don’t live in the US so you don’t have a representative. Feel lucky.
What?! That is just creepy!! Geeze I already have weird feelings that someone is watching me…now there actually is!
Anyways. I like the layout. It reminds me of a newspaper. And I’m saying that as a good thing…your blog is always informative but still interesting.
I like how you have some people leave comments in third person. Lol.
Yeah… that’s not sitting well with me. =T I know that the rep for my hometown voted no, thankfully, but that was apparently a futile attempt.
Damn it. Why must the politicians take away our freedom, especially when we’re so close to Bush’s finish line? Whyyyyyyyy?
I’ve often wished I could visit the USA but that’s the extent of it. When I read things like this it really makes me thankful to live in the UK.
@Becca
Yup. Mari thinks we should all give them a show. Be super lewd when alone. Belch, pass gas, scratch in indecent places, pick your nose…whatever you can. XDDDD
@Maria
It’s infectious, apparently. XD
Because. They’re all crooks and liars.
@Amber
And it really makes Mari wish she did live in the UK.
You and I both know that Bush and these “gentlement” are utter twats. Thank goodness he, along with a chunk of his cronies, are out of there in 2008, or 2009 if you want to get technical. *lol* It almost makes me want to live in Canada, if only Canada didn’t have it’s own political issues. Hehe.
Every country has its own political issues, hahaha. But yeah… I am glad my parents decided to move to Canada. o_O
I asked my friend about this and she told me “huh, i dunno, but i’m not surprised.”
This is a bit interesting, and scary at the same time. D:
I’m a Canadian chick, thank gosh.
I agree with Eina. Interesting, but scary. x.x
@Irene
Yes we do. XD
Every place has its issues, but we’re the only place that seems to have an idiot as its all-powerful Emperor.
@Eina
Well, obviously, kids don’t read the newspaper. And this probably wasn’t in the newspaper. I mean, come on, do you think the media is going to report that you’re all now subject to Emperor George II’s all-seeing eye? XD Mari thinks not.
@Emma
You’re lucky this is one of those “Scary, but far away” stories.
