McConnell to push for pure PATRIOT Act extension

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Tuesday he intends to push for a straight extension of expiring PATRIOT Act provisions, setting up a clash with House leaders who prefer a bill that would end the National Security Agency’s bulk data collection program.

McConnell said that given the time constraints, he is planning to put on the Senate floor legislation to preserve the “Section 215” bulk data initiative, as well roving wiretap authorization and a so-called “lone wolf” provision allowing intelligence gathering on individuals who aren’t connected to any known terrorist organization.

You're lucky Mitch ain't black. If he was, this would be racist. I'm sure.

First, it is in poor taste to make fun of a man's appearance. If he were a female, Maven would be here to point out that this is not acceptable.

Second, he seriously looks like that turtle. Weird.
