FBI's Patriot Act snooping broke rules...
NO!! Really, you think!!? :eek: The FBI break rules? Couldn't be!!
The FBI is guilty of "serious misuse" of the power to secretly obtain private information under the Patriot Act, a government audit said Friday.The Justice Department's inspector general looked at the FBI's use of national security letters, in which agents demand personal and business information about individuals -- such as financial, phone, and Internet records -- without court orders.
The audit found the letters were issued without proper authority, cited incorrect statutes or obtained information they weren't supposed to.

I ask, how long before we put this worthless organization out of business?
