Get the US PATRIOT ACTmug. Find yourself a liberal, then convince her to have sex with you. Pound her vagina until she bleeds or while she is having her period. Just before you ejaculate your gorilla juice pull it out, wipe your dick on her face. Then nut on top of her face and finish up with a punch to the eye...Then state "Big Brother is watching you!!"
After Obama's Election I went around giving the Patriot Act to all the retards that had a stupid smile on their faces.

Get the Patriot Actmug. Yet another phrase used to whip people into a Bush-hating frenzy, the PATRIOT Act actually makes punishments against people who perform unauthorized wiretaps or use unauthorized listening devices harsher, thus PROTECTING people's privacy.
...but just try telling someone that.

Get the Patriot Actmug. Legislation designed to protect the American people from terrorism. Often criticized by the left and those who have something to hide. (see terrorist)
Leftist college student: The Patriot Act is choking our liberties.
Me: Your liberties are not being choked. If what you said was true, the FBI would be down here and arrest you for saying stuff like that.
Student: That just what that fascist Bush wants you to believe.
Me: He's not a fascist. Fascists want to take your guns away. Republicans and conservatives value gun ownership. It is the democrats and the liberals who want to take your guns away. They are the real fascists.
Students: Uh, pardon me, fascism is right wing, like the nazis.
Me: Which confuses me, because nazi stands for national socialist. It's socialism, which is a leftist ideology, but on a national scale. So really, naziism is left wing.
Student: Whatever Michael Savage. (Walks away)

Get the Patriot Actmug. On June 14, 1954, President Dwight Eisenhower signed a bill to insert the phrase “under God” into the U.S. Pledge of Allegiance that children recited every morning in school. The United States wanted to distinguish itself from godless communist countries.
Following this Eisenhower signed another bill that declared all children born after the year 1950 would be required to visit all 48 U.S. States to obtain a high school diploma. This was put into place as a way to promote patriotism in American youth.
In 1959 after the installation of both Hawaii and Alaska as U.S. states. The law was called into question as Congress was unsure of requiring students to travel out of the continental United States.
Currently American students are required to visit all 50 U.S. States in order to graduate from high school. Each student gets 12 years to complete this. They are allowed to cross their home state off the list (Excluding District of Columbia students). They must show proof they've visited the state either by photo, souvenir, or a local signature.
In 2016 Hilary Clinton argued this law was classicist and targeted marginalized communities.
Many Americans are forced to get GEDs due to not visiting all 50 states. The groups with the lowest average graduation rates were Black, Indigenous, and Hispanic.
Democrats have been calling for this law to be revoked but have been blocked on several occasions by Republicans who wish for the law to remain in action.
