I think this is the section of the renewed Patriot Act.

[link|http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/F?c109:6:./temp/~c1092mSb7i:e171140:|Thomas at the Library of Congress]:

SEC. 502. INTERIM APPOINTMENT OF UNITED STATES ATTORNEYS.

Section 546 of title 28, United States Code, is amended by striking subsections (c) and (d) and inserting the following new subsection:

`(c) A person appointed as United States attorney under this section may serve until the qualification of a United States Attorney for such district appointed by the President under section 541 of this title.'.

[link|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._Attorney|Wikipedia] has more details.

That law is such a mish mash. I don't know about you, but I'm certainly glad that the PATRIOT Act covers smokeless tobacco, methamphetamine, and restricts sales of over-the-counter decongestants.

:-/

Cheers,
Scott.

Who lied about it? Prez? Gonzo? - (bepatient) - (3) - March 15, 2007, 03:52:29 PM EDT

You should learn more about what you are defending. -NT - (Silverlock) - (2) - March 15, 2007, 04:03:06 PM EDT

You should learn to clarify use of pronouns -NT - (bepatient) - (1) - March 15, 2007, 04:28:32 PM EDT

And I was incorrect. - (bepatient) - March 15, 2007, 04:33:07 PM EDT

Point missed - (bepatient) - (56) - March 15, 2007, 10:28:49 PM EDT

Hillary did it and had no authority - (bepatient) - (53) - March 16, 2007, 10:32:15 AM EDT

Then who let her? - (drewk) - (22) - March 16, 2007, 11:14:31 AM EDT

Thats why they call it TravelGate. - (bepatient) - (19) - March 16, 2007, 11:32:06 AM EDT

And Rove gave the order, and it was followed. - (jb4) - (18) - March 17, 2007, 09:10:44 PM EDT

No, he didn't. And there's sworn testimony that >she< did. -NT - (bepatient) - (17) - March 17, 2007, 09:44:17 PM EDT

Which, of course, they're frantically backpeddaling on. - (jb4) - (2) - March 17, 2007, 09:48:46 PM EDT

Who is backpedaling on what. - (bepatient) - March 17, 2007, 09:51:19 PM EDT

You're forgetting the other part of the analogy .... - (Simon_Jester) - March 18, 2007, 01:05:03 PM EDT

Sworn testimony from this crowd - (Silverlock) - (13) - March 17, 2007, 09:53:35 PM EDT

Missed point - (Silverlock) - (11) - March 18, 2007, 07:48:21 AM EDT

Make me laugh - (bepatient) - (10) - March 18, 2007, 11:18:10 AM EDT

Then why do you get upset when they get called on it? -NT - (Another Scott) - (9) - March 18, 2007, 11:23:16 AM EDT

Huh? - (bepatient) - (8) - March 18, 2007, 11:27:45 AM EDT

Pessimist, remember? - (bepatient) - (2) - March 18, 2007, 11:41:47 AM EDT

What kind of pessimist? - (Seamus) - (1) - March 18, 2007, 01:07:52 PM EDT

Like what? - (bepatient) - March 18, 2007, 01:11:57 PM EDT

Wouldn't be surprised if that provision was added in conf. - (Another Scott) - (3) - March 21, 2007, 12:23:42 AM EDT

Wow, you're a genius! - (drewk) - (2) - March 21, 2007, 12:40:12 AM EDT

You can call me "Mr. Obvious" if you'd like. -NT - (Another Scott) - (1) - March 21, 2007, 12:43:56 AM EDT

Re: Hillary did it and had no authority - (Seamus) - (29) - March 16, 2007, 01:49:58 PM EDT

What emails are you talking about? - (bepatient) - (28) - March 16, 2007, 02:05:15 PM EDT

Copy of email - (bepatient) - (26) - March 16, 2007, 02:18:11 PM EDT

This is exactly what starts it - (bepatient) - (4) - March 16, 2007, 04:05:35 PM EDT

Isn't it *also* possible - (drewk) - (2) - March 16, 2007, 04:22:21 PM EDT

On this matter - (bepatient) - (1) - March 16, 2007, 04:33:37 PM EDT

Miers did not start it - (Seamus) - March 16, 2007, 05:46:51 PM EDT

E-Mails show Rove's Role in Attorny Firings - (lincoln) - (3) - March 16, 2007, 03:09:16 PM EDT

They don't show that at all. Thats why I attached the email. -NT - (bepatient) - (2) - March 16, 2007, 03:25:51 PM EDT

You must have better sources than ABC News, right? - (lincoln) - (1) - March 17, 2007, 01:04:45 PM EDT

I guess I do. - (bepatient) - March 17, 2007, 01:55:33 PM EDT

Rove was the person people were looking to ok this - (Seamus) - (14) - March 16, 2007, 03:29:58 PM EDT

BS - (bepatient) - (13) - March 16, 2007, 03:32:33 PM EDT

It is not BS - (Seamus) - (12) - March 16, 2007, 05:36:11 PM EDT

Guesswork, guesswork and more guesswork - (bepatient) - (11) - March 16, 2007, 06:17:33 PM EDT

We may know more next week. - (Another Scott) - March 17, 2007, 11:21:54 AM EDT

Can you point me to the scathing email - (Seamus) - (3) - March 17, 2007, 06:39:52 PM EDT

So now you agree with me? - (bepatient) - (2) - March 17, 2007, 09:46:39 PM EDT

No I don't - (Seamus) - March 18, 2007, 06:38:19 AM EDT

If not Rove, who *did* push it? -NT - (drewk) - March 18, 2007, 09:23:03 AM EDT

is /iz/ - verb - (jb4) - (1) - March 17, 2007, 09:20:49 PM EDT

It'd be funny if it wasn't sad. -NT - (bepatient) - March 17, 2007, 09:47:47 PM EDT

They are already backtracking on Harriet - (JayMehaffey) - March 16, 2007, 02:33:35 PM EDT

Welcome to the fight, comrade. -NT - (mmoffitt) - March 16, 2007, 01:08:18 PM EDT

Thats right. Hear the bells? - (bepatient) - (3) - March 18, 2007, 11:19:37 AM EDT
