I oppose H.R.5949 - FISA Amendments Act Reauthorization Act of 2012, Both of my Senators and my Representative have abandoned the US Constitution and are passing bills to the detriment of these United States.
I, in the past have voted for Buchanen, and Rubio. You both need to show me me some back bone, and fix this Country and the coming Financial Collapse, instead of lining your pockets as I suspect you all do with some deal or another. (Tell me I am wrong?)
