Video: Feingold Convinces Senators to Block Patriot Act Extension
Sen. Russ Feingold (D-WI) was the lone dissenting vote in the U.S. Senate when the Patriot Act was rushed through Congress after September 11. This month, he led the campaign to prevent the Act’s renewal. He pledged to filibuster, and today, he won.
Just prior to the vote, Feingold addressed his fellow senators, keying off this morning’s New York Times report on the Bush administration’s extensive (and potentially illegal) domestic wiretapping practices:
I don’t want to hear again from the Attorney General or anyone on this floor that this government has shown it can be trusted to use the power we give it with restraint and care. This shocking revelation ought to send a chill down the spine of every Senator and every American.
Watch it:
Full transcript below:
Mr. President, I thank the Senator from Vermont, not only for yielding time but for his tremendous leadership on this issue, and I am deeply grateful to him for it.
Let me just echo what Senator Kennedy said. This morning, we saw an astounding story in the New York Times. Since 2002, the government has reportedly been wiretapping the international phone and e-mail conversations of hundreds, even thousands, of people inside the United States without wiretap orders.
Mr. President, when I talk about abuses, I can’t imagine a more shocking example of an abuse of power. To eavesdrop on American citizens without first getting a court order based on some evidence that they are possibly criminals, terrorists, or spies. It is truly astonishing to read that this administration would go this far beyond the bounds of the statutes of the Constitution.
So we as an institution have the duty and the obligation to get to the bottom of this. I hope that this morning’s revelation drives home to people that this body must be absolutely vigilant in our oversight of government power.
And I don’t want to hear again from the Attorney General or anyone on this floor that this government has shown it can be trusted to use the power we give it with restraint and care. This shocking revelation ought to send a chill down the spine of every Senator and every American.
And so, when we look at Section 215 of the Patriot Act — remember, this is the section where Attorney General Ashcroft once said that librarians concerned about the privacy rights of their patrons were “hysterical.” But then, the attorney general conceded at his nomination hearing in the Senate Judiciary Committee that some changes would be justified.
Unfortunately, the administration was not willing to make the real changes to that provision that are necessary to protect the rights and freedoms of innocent Americans.
The provisions of the bill relating to National Security Letters are also deficient. There is no requirement, Mr. President, that the records sought under that authority — which doesn’t involve a court at all — have some connection at all to a suspected terrorist or spy. The judicial review that the conference report allows after the fact of a National Security Letter itself and the mandatory gag order, Mr. President, is just a mirage.
After what the Times reported this morning, no one in this body should be comfortable with a government having this kind of unreviewable power. So Mr. President, this conference report is inadequate and should not be passed. I believe it will not pass.
So let me talk finally to what happens if the cloture motion fails. Do those who oppose the conference report and want the PATRIOT Act to expire? Of course not! It is false to suggest that we do, and it is shameful to threaten that that is what will happen if the Senate does not approve this conference report.
The only way that the PATRIOT Act will expire at the end of this year is if the proponents of the conference report — in this body or the other body — block alternative reauthorization bills that can easily pass with widespread, bipartisan support.
Now is not the time for brinksmanship or threats. Now is the time do the right thing for the American people, and for the Constitutional rights and freedoms that make our country great.
Mr. President, I am very proud to be part of a bipartisan coalition working together to strengthen protections for civil liberties in the Patriot Act. I think the demonstration of bipartisanship on this floor over the last few days has been simply remarkable. We have stayed together ever since our bill, the SAFE Act, was introduced.
We knew that a time would come where we’d have to take a stand, and now we have. We are united today, as we were then.
This is not a partisan issue. This is an American issue. This is a Constitutional issue. We can come together to give the government the tools it needs to fight terrorism and protect the rights and freedoms of innocent citizens. And we can do this before the end of this year.
But first, we must keep this inadequate conference report from becoming law by voting “no.”
Mr. President, I yield the floor.

I was getting concerned that there were no good people left in Congress. It appears that perhaps, just perhaps, we're not as deep into the dark dark woods as I thought Bush has driving the nation.
Way to go, Feingold!!!
December 16th, 2005 at 3:18 pmOur first Jewish President? He is VERY high on my list.
December 16th, 2005 at 3:18 pmWay to go, Russ!
Funny how the republicans always talk about getting the government off the backs of the people, but it takes someone like Russ Feingold to actually put words into action.
I'm not a democrat (or a republican) but I can say without a doubt that I'm well represented by Russ Feingold.
December 16th, 2005 at 3:22 pmAttaboy Russ!
December 16th, 2005 at 3:22 pmIt's such fun to watch Dems and Progs defend domestic enemies - but ONLY the ones who REALLY just HATE America!!!
December 16th, 2005 at 3:22 pmI smell a "Terror Alert" coming... maybe it will get raised to mauve???

December 16th, 2005 at 3:28 pm[...] Feingold convinces Senators to block the Patriot Act. OK, Feingold in ‘08 is sounding more and more like the best idea i’ve heard in a long while. [...]
December 16th, 2005 at 3:30 pmFrom now on, instead of saying "goodbye" at the end of a phone call, we should get creative with these fascists:

So domestic enemies are people who peacfully disagree with you? And could you give up the "You must hate America" thing, it's old. You must hate the Constitution and our civil liberties.
December 16th, 2005 at 3:33 pm"I don't want to hear again from the attorney general or anyone on this floor that this government has shown it can be trusted to use the power we give it with restraint and care," said Feingold.
He's right, they're not to be trusted.
December 16th, 2005 at 3:34 pm#5 I believe the biggest "domestic enemy" resides at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave!
December 16th, 2005 at 3:34 pm#10
My thoughts exactly.
December 16th, 2005 at 3:35 pm#5,
I would bet you are not well educated, don't have to work, and enjoy manicures, jewelry, and expensive things. Otherwise there is no explanation for your density.
December 16th, 2005 at 3:36 pmBut seriously For Truth. Mighty has no interest in debating the issues. It's only interested in venting about liberals. Waste of time.
December 16th, 2005 at 3:37 pmI'm glad that Feingold was able to stop the passage of the Patriot Act. While there are some provisions in it that are necessary, there have obviously been instances where the government has overstepped its bounds and as such needs to be held accountable.
December 16th, 2005 at 3:37 pmIt’s such fun to watch Neocons defend domestic enemies - but ONLY the ones who REALLY just HATE American rights and freedoms!!!
December 16th, 2005 at 3:38 pmMighty Afrodite, for you.
Most educational institutions are full of Liberals. It’s hard finding intelligent Conservatives. People who know what’s up, don’t buy the crap. Both coasts, where the cutting edge of things happening, are full of Liberals also. We don’t see great science, art, research, technology, music, and new discoveries coming from middle America. Let’s face it, the majority of conservatives are simple people, with overly simplified solutions to issues. “We’ll just kick their asses.â€
December 16th, 2005 at 3:39 pmHeh. For a country that was founded on the basis of dissent, free speech and freedom of the press, we've sure come a long way, baby!
December 16th, 2005 at 3:40 pmSenator Feingold thank you for setting our course back toward the American ideals of our founding fathers today. Ben Franklin would have been proad of your actions in the face of what seemed like unsurmountable odds. You have cast a great light on the fascist movement in this country. May it suffer a swift and painful death.
December 16th, 2005 at 3:40 pmI bet Mighty is from somewhere in Middle America.
December 16th, 2005 at 3:41 pm#21--so is Russ Feingold.
December 16th, 2005 at 3:43 pm#5 It's NOT AMerica that I hate, it's what America has become under the murderous ass clown YOU call president.
December 16th, 2005 at 3:43 pmIn light of Bush illegally telling the NSA to spy on US citizens, he does not need the patriot act, because he will just go behind our backs violating our rights, breaking the law anyway. We need the sunset clauses to expire, and the parts that were not sunsetted, to be repealed.
Bush illegally violating the law wiretapping without a court order, needs to be investigagted, and Bush impeached, no one is above the law, not even the President
December 16th, 2005 at 3:46 pmmighty aphrodite,
December 16th, 2005 at 3:46 pmDon't get scared. I know you feel like the walls are closing in but they aren't. You'll discover the real America one day. I think you'll find it's not cut out for your kind.
Feingold 2008!
and who are those two hotties behind him???
December 16th, 2005 at 3:48 pm#10 - Dear For SomeTruth - If you had taken the time to read the link you MIGHT have caught the part about domestically located people making international calls and the possibility of terrorism. Dissent all you want - I need a good example from time to time how badly educated so many progs are. Your paranoia illustrates why I refer to Think "Progress" as "Think Pessimism".
Discussing the brilliance of the liberal coasts - such intellectually cloistered places! (Wsn't the last great debate by progs on college campuses which flavour pie to toss and miss at Ann Coulter???) But you know what they say in fly-over country (which you so snobbishly dismiss) "Those who can - D. Those who can't - TEACH." My apologies to the dozens of good teachers out there.
December 16th, 2005 at 3:50 pmmighty aphrodite is somewhere where ghosts and bad dreams run. She takes her medicine because the commercials tell her to. She doesn't know who the bad guys are unless they have signs that say "bad guy". And when the world disagrees with her presumptions, innocent people become bad guys.
December 16th, 2005 at 3:51 pmIt was illegal, mighty aphrodite.

December 16th, 2005 at 3:58 pmIf you take time to think, you will realize the wiretaps on those domestic calls were done without any court order, which is a vialation of THE LAW. But I understand fully well that the neocons have no respect for the law or the "gawd dammed piece of paper" the constitution.

Yeah, until she gets busted for hiring illegal immigrants below minimum wage, then we'll see what song she sings...
December 16th, 2005 at 4:00 pm#18 Hey, For Truth, please don't forget the great blue state of Illinois is part of middle America!
December 16th, 2005 at 4:05 pmmity afro wants a government that can wiretap her anytime it damn well pleases. The existence of civil liberties is not as important as doing what annoys liberals (i.e. killing in large numbers, illegal imprisonment, kicking the poor, etc).
and mity, I think we all saw the reference to terrorism, no need to point that out as if it cinches any argument you care to make.
Take a look at the economic powerhouses of this country. They are in liberal places, where all the technological innovation happens. Doesn't look so "cloistered" when you examine who is doing the "doing" around here.
December 16th, 2005 at 4:14 pmHallelujah!! Someone is finally standing up for every American's rights.
December 16th, 2005 at 4:17 pmYou go boy!!!
Ohhh, I want to have Russ' babies.
December 16th, 2005 at 4:27 pm(And that's really saying something.)
Feingold in 2008!
If Sen. Feingold is so interested in civil rights, why on earth did he sponsor the campaign reform law - quite possibly the biggest anti-free speech legislation this country has ever seen!!!
I find the opposition to the Patriot Act disingenous, at best, deceitful at worst. The Democrats are taking a big risk here - now, a filibuster against Alito becomes that much more difficult and the assumption that Americans want to let a law that has aided in the War on Terror expire is a stretch.
December 16th, 2005 at 4:29 pmFeingold is a Hypocrite,
December 16th, 2005 at 4:32 pmYou're rambling.
MightyTranny hates 'intellectual places', because he's deficient intellectually :()
December 16th, 2005 at 4:36 pmMightyTranny,
Is that the same 'flyover' country your family moved to when they 'cut and run' from europe like cowards, instead of staying and resisting? I thought so...
December 16th, 2005 at 4:37 pmum, BOTH parties voted together on this thing...
December 16th, 2005 at 4:44 pm"Feingold is a Hypocrite"
Funny that there are Republicans voting against closure as well, saying the Democrats are taking a chance is bulldooky. The ones taking a chance are the ones voting for it, when the majority of Americans want the act to expire, those are the ones that will pay for it in 2006.
December 16th, 2005 at 4:47 pmI'm been listening to Limbaugh reel of the list of Patriot Act provisions that will now disappear as a result of the Senate's action today. We will return to what is known as the Gorelick Wall, policy that is deemed responsible for our Intel failures prior to 9-11. I'm thinking how I would feel if I learned in the morning that some nut crashed the Senate, and machine gunned the lot of them to death.
I'm not sure if I would be traumatized over this abject failure of democracy, or be secretly gleeful that among the 100 dead were approximately 60 of the vilest people in the nation, including every Democrat, John McCain, and Arlen Sphincter. I think that in the short term I'd be happy as hell, but later wish we could have done things the American way .. with trials and hangings.

December 16th, 2005 at 5:06 pmThank god there is a very good method for keeping nutjobs like you out of the system.
#36 It's a war on Terrorism - the act of intimidating by fear (like what the Bush administration has been dong since 9/11). Terror is an emotion. You can't wage war against an emotion.
December 16th, 2005 at 5:06 pmWow, its almost like there is an opposition party again! By the way people, just ignore the trolls. They aren't worth your time or effort. You can come up with the greatest argument for any issue, and you hear the same things over and over again... Clinton Bad, Liberals Bad, Everything is your fault, You Hate America... It's just getting old.
December 16th, 2005 at 5:09 pmI’m been listening to Limbaugh ......

December 16th, 2005 at 5:14 pmOk, I feel a little better knowing my President doesn't give a crap about the Senate or the limits of the Patriot Act....
Bush Secretly Lifted Some Limits on Spying in U.S. After 9/11, Officials Say (JAMES RISEN and ERIC LICHTBLAU, 12/15/05, NY Times)
Months after the Sept. 11 attacks, President Bush secretly authorized the National Security Agency to eavesdrop on Americans and others inside the United States to search for evidence of terrorist activity without the court-approved warrants ordinarily required for domestic spying, according to government officials.
Under a presidential order signed in 2002, the intelligence agency has monitored the international telephone calls and international e-mail messages of hundreds, perhaps thousands, of people inside the United States without warrants over the past three years in an effort to track possible "dirty numbers" linked to Al Qaeda, the officials said. The agency, they said, still seeks warrants to monitor entirely domestic communications.
The previously undisclosed decision to permit some eavesdropping inside the country without court approval represents a major shift in American intelligence-gathering practices, particularly for the National Security Agency, whose mission is to spy on communications abroad. As a result, some officials familiar with the continuing operation have questioned whether the surveillance has stretched, if not crossed, constitutional limits on legal searches.
"This is really a sea change," said a former senior official who specializes in national security law. "It's almost a mainstay of this country that the N.S.A. only does foreign searches." [...]
Several officials said the eavesdropping program had helped uncover a plot by Iyman Faris, an Ohio trucker and naturalized citizen who pleaded guilty in 2003 to supporting Al Qaeda by planning to bring down the Brooklyn Bridge with blowtorches. What appeared to be another Qaeda plot, involving fertilizer bomb attacks on British pubs and train stations, was exposed last year in part through the program, the officials said. But they said most people targeted for N.S.A. monitoring have never been charged with a crime, including an Iranian-American doctor in the South who came under suspicion because of what one official described as dubious ties to Osama bin Laden.
The eavesdropping program grew out of concerns after the Sept. 11 attacks that the nation's intelligence agencies were not poised to deal effectively with the new threat of Al Qaeda and that they were handcuffed by legal and bureaucratic restrictions better suited to peacetime than war, according to officials. In response, President Bush significantly eased limits on American intelligence and law enforcement agencies and the military.

If your such a chicken, and sooooooooo scared of getting hurt by the big bad terrorists, that you would sell out our democracy, then why don't you buy an underground bunker and go live in it you little sissy coward.
Last I checked, Pat Henry said "give me liberty or give me death", not "take whatever of my liberties you need Mr. President, but ohh please don't let me get hurt".
You're a sissy.

December 16th, 2005 at 6:02 pmIt's about effin time!
December 16th, 2005 at 6:03 pmYou know, if all those sooo afraid of terrorists, would have put as much effort and resources on finding Bin Laden and the terrorists, instead of worrying about whether or not you can torture them when you do, then maybe we would have captured or killed Bin Laden by now and this would all be moot.
December 16th, 2005 at 6:05 pmIt is a breath of fresh air to see our elected officials begining to show some backbone. I only wish the Representatives and Senators from our state (Texas) were not all neatly in the pockets of corporations and neocon groups.

December 16th, 2005 at 6:11 pmRe: #27: Last time I looked, those who *can* were also congregated on the coasts. They were working in finance on Wall Street, in advertising on Madison Avenue, in entertainment on Sunset Boulevard, and in technology in Silicon Valley.
There's not a single comparable economic engine anywhere in the heartland outside Chicago. Even Detroit is going the way of the dinosaur -- largely because they were too provincial to realize people wanted more fuel-efficient cars (didn't we see this movie in the mid-70s?), and because people like you keep trying to block universal health coverage.
The talent all goes east and west because anti-intellectuals in red-state small towns have made a game out of running their best and brightest out on a rail for several generations now. (I know: I was one of them.) Any rural kid with a taste for books and an interest in the world is harassed beyond endurance; all the smart ones can do is pray for scholarships and count the days until they can hop a Greyhound for the coast.
And then these same towns wonder why they can't attract investment, where their tax base went, and why they're left with "the ones who can't." Sheesh.
It's not an accident that brains, talent, money, culture, and liberalism all seem to be congregated in the same places. And people like Aphrodite (the goddess of love? Right.) are Exhibit A in that argument.
December 16th, 2005 at 6:11 pmIt's strange how conservatives 'used to' hate big government, prying into uor lives, yadfa, yada... EXCEPT - when it goes against party lines. What a bunch of miscreants.
December 16th, 2005 at 6:15 pmWow the Senate actually cares about our 2nd amendment rights afterall , now Bushs library records are safe too , oh yeah that's right he don't read .
December 16th, 2005 at 6:33 pmI think the President was right, today is a great day for democracy.
Of course, his message was geared towards the Iraqi elections.
Little did he know when he got up this morning that it would also be a great day for freedom here in America as well, as Democrats, aided by a few wise republicans, blocked the renewal of the Patriot Act, thus restoring the hope of freedom and democracy here in our own country.

December 16th, 2005 at 9:52 pmNow I am certain that the trolls who post here get their info fro mFox and Limbaugh -- IRI has said so. He mistakenly repeats the Limbaugh lie about the Jamie Gorelick wall that he thinks contributed to 9/11. That she signed the document was merely a reaffirmation of something that had been on the books since GHWBush was president. The 9/11 commission (Republican led) repeatedly stated so, but that never has prevented LImbaugh from spewing the lies and fabrications that he does so continuously.
December 16th, 2005 at 10:29 pmThe list of impeachable acts committed by the Bush-Cheny administration is growing almost daily or should I say by the hour. It is beyond comprehension that Clinton was actually impeached for the crime of sexual misconduct and Bush remains untarnished and unaccused while he lied our nation into a illegal war. This man should not be allowed to occupy the Whitehouse for another day, where he should be is in jail.
December 16th, 2005 at 10:29 pmFeingold has the guts to speak out for what is right. The Federal Communications Act of the 1970’s specifically addresses this - it is a federal crime.
December 16th, 2005 at 10:35 pmThis is impeachable. Bush has admitted it; he has personally signed three dozen authorizations for unwarranted eavesdropping. The White House counsel has approved it.
Bush must be impeached. Add this crime to his pre-emptive war -- his invasion of a sovereign nation -- his lies to get us into war -- his breach of the rules of the Geneva Convention in the handling of prisoners -- his rendition of detainees to foreign prisons -- his holding Americans as prisoners for years with no charges.
How many laws can they rewrite, reinterpret, and violate? This crime family must be ousted from office.
(...)We will return to what is known as the Gorelick Wall, policy that is deemed responsible for our Intel failures prior to 9-11. (...)
Comment by I-RIGHT-I — December 16, 2005 @ 4:49 pm
Ah, the famous "Gorelick wall". Limbaugh is not one to ever let facts get in the way.
No, I-RIGHT-I, that "wall" is not deemed responsible for any such thing.
Let's walk down memory lane and take a look at that "wall" again:
The 1995 Department of Justice guidelines at issue [aka "Gorelick wall"] were internal to the Justice Department and were not even sent to any other agency. The guidelines had no effect on the Department of Defense and certainly did not prohibit it from communicating with the FBI, the CIA or anyone else.
--Former Republican senator Slade Gorton, 9-11 Commission member
So-called Gorelick "wall" could not have been responsible for military failure to share alleged Atta intel
In part, "the wall" derived from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978. It is important to differentiate between "the wall" established by FISA (which was abrogated by the PATRIOT Act) and the added procedural obstacles imposed by Gorelick's 1995 memorandum.(...)Gorelick's memo is limited in scope; it limits the prosecutors' ability to get information from the FBI's counterintelligence division. It would not have covered the situation at issue in Able Danger, that is, information gathered by military intelligence."
The White Memo
And here are some links to Think Progress' own debunking on this story:

December 17th, 2005 at 12:24 am[...] Yesterday however showed that not only does Senator Feingold stand on principle but also that he can fight and win within the confines of the incredibly partisan Senate. Senator Feingold successfully led the charge to block a particularly damaging extension of the USA PATRIOT Act. You can watch a nice clip of him here and read about the story here. What I admired most though is that Feingold knows that Act will be authorized but instead of digging in and making the extension on his own terms he has worked with Dems and Republicans alike to craft an extension that is reasonable and one that will not continue to trounce on the civil liberties of Americans. In doing so he has been able to persuade some Republicans to block the measure that their President and leadership are fighting so hard for. I think Feingold is a leader and frankly, a hero. I think he is a guy to watch in 2008 because he is the perfect foil to Hillary’s disgusting opportunism and run for the center. [link] [...]
