One good thing came out of the revelation of the Bush administration's domestic spying program: it is finally starting to dawn on the other branches of government that Washington has a problem. The dreaded Patriot Act, a pro-Fascism policy under a false name, may very well be headed towards extinction. The original compromise of extending it six months was still bothersome, but thankfully wiser heads prevailed, and it only has a possible lifespan of one month.
Maybe there is hope for this country after all.
