Thank you for playing

 

 

You clearly don't know what that means.  Again, READ THE DAMN THING!

 

For example...do you think the President can chose to ignore or repeal:

SEC. 218. FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE INFORMATION. Sections 104(a)(7)(B) and section 303(a)(7)(B) (50 U.S.C. 1804(a)(7)(B) and 1823(a)(7)(B)) of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act of 1978 are each amended by striking ‘‘the purpose’’ and inserting ‘‘a significant purpose’’.

Read the USA PATRIOT Act and explain to me how its contents can be ignored by the President.

 

That's all I'm asking.  Explain how you'd ignore it.

Bu that isn't the discussion, you said an Act is not a law which I disagreed with and just showed you

I see the problem...it's not that you didn't read the Act.  You didn't read my post.

 

I didn't say "It's not a law."  I said "It's not a law to be enforced or unenforced."

 

 

Infinitive clauses are important...particularly in the case where the discussion was whether or not the USA PATRIOT Act could be enforced or unenforced by the President. 

 

Will it help your comprehension if I rephrase it as "It is a law, BUT it's not a law to be enforced or unenforced?"

Kinda limits the Jets offense.  I doubt the Secret Service would let his team mates use the Shotgun or Pistol
