They are extending the Patriot Act.

Does anyone actually think that knowing what library books I check out automatically determines whether I'm a terrorist or not?

For you, Yes.... :)

When I was kid, there were dumb rules in the lunchroom, like if you wear green on Tuesday it means you're gay. I think of that every time I read about the government scanning library records looking for terrorists.

I can't say I'm disappointed in Congress extending the Patriot Act, since I expected it to happen from day one. I do wish they'd merely extended the sunset clause another few years instead of making it permanent.
