That is not a good thing in my book either

I watched the video and will need to see some answers in the debates to get a better Idea of what he means.

But some of the crap was just not constitutional.

He's right. Congress shouldn't water down the Patriot Act.

The Patriot Act should be repealed and forgotten except as a reminder of how bad Liberal expansion of government is and the resulting lack of freedoms, liberties, and privacy.

Yeah, well, Scott Walker doesn't want it to be repealed or changed, he wants it left as is. So that makes him unsupportable for me.

Ah, the joys of our wooden yokes.
Wait till the "patriots" rebel and we get an iron yoke.

For our collective rebellion to the God of America, as recognized in the Declaration of Independence, as "nature's God", we have those who hate us ruling over us.

He's toasted you Leftists too many times to receive your support? Stunning. Normally, the last person someone on the Left would vote for is someone who has consistently defeated their message and made them look like fools doing it. I remember he had the Wisconsin Legislature fleeing to other states trying to hide from vote calls in their House. They were using busing in opposition to 'occupy' their statehouse. MSNBC up there all aflame, the first moron they wake up sleeping on the floor is from Montana. You shouldn't vote for him Common, he's making y'all look like clowns.

Uh.... just a country second...... do we have some Obama supporters in here railing off on Walker. Obama voted for the Surveillance Act in 2008. Expanded and extended that program during his first four years.... and received the majority of votes by many in here. Obama has extended and expanded the Patriot Act as well...... and how many in here chortling off about Neocons voted for Obama in 2012?

That dog don't hunt here. That much of the reason I'm here, for sheer entertainment. All Obama voters........ right now......... please remove yourself from the conversation, you're splitting my sides.

Common, why not do some digging. Rather than expose yourself again. Walker won the Wisconsin election where campaign donations have limits..... and the Democrats immediately attempted a recall election. Historically, recalls are engaged when there has been corruption or improprieties there was no such thing, the Dems opposed his policies and thus money poured in to do just that, force a recall vote. In order to protect elected officials Common...... campaign limits are removed for the recall. Because most state's laws understand raising funds and campaigning for a recall takes time from the office whereupon they were duly elected. The Koch Bros seeing the crass methods of the Left gave money to Walkers campaign...... same as many big names as many in the GOP watched Wisconsin Lawmakers flee to other states, bus unwashed teenagers from out of state in to camp in the Capitol, and force expensive to Walker recall elections for political purposes. The issue in that event wasn't Koch Brother money, it was the Union and Left Wing money that poured in and once again..... Walker won that recall by a huge margin, his policies implemented. Policies that make sense by the way. You are lost son. Someone mentions Koch to you and you think coke and snort it right up. Homework!!

Well, I guess it's only fair you should attempt a 'match' for me when I've shown time and again how your opinions goosestep with the American Left. And unless your theory on matching is one of opposites attract, I don't think your going to have luck with this particular attempt. I'm not a racist.

I disagree with him on the Patriot Act, but I could still support him over several other candidates. After all, extending, eliminating or tinkering with the Patriot Act is a Congressional responsibility. Plus, I suspect that he does not know the full extent every element of the Patriot Act right now.

But they would need President Walker to support or veto the legislation, and I'd like my president to serve as my last line of defense against bad congressional law. In this case, President Walker would abandon his post and surrender to the enemy.

I'm not so sure you are correct. I'd have to hear what changes he thinks would be watering it down in his mind. Saying you don't want it watered down is not the same as saying keep it as is. It can be changed to not infringe on our rights, but still be a useful tool to fight terrorism.

personally, I'd like to see it repealed completely, but that's not a realistic expectation.

There are some issues that give us insight into a candidate's thoughts. I think the PA is one of those. PA = big government, no right to privacy.

To me, its like those who changed their mind on the vote to invade Iraq. I have more respect who started out supporting the invasion than those who caved to the advertising campaign.
