The rules have changed folk. Deal with it.
You are quoting the old rules which no longer have any meaning. :(
D'oh, a typo.

The Patriot act was hardly used against anyone for arrests, obvious looking around, etc., so people didn't pay as much attention to it. It's still getting argued about and people know it exists. An extra term would make a lot bigger news, and would be obvious to see that Bush was pulling it, so would be way, way harder to pull off with just a law.
