As you know, the word "PATRIOT" in the Patriot Act does not stand for the definition of "Patriot." It stands for something, but I couldn't remember what. Hardly anyone knows what it means! So I sent out a "Please help" email for readers to furnish a definition of what they think it really means.
Here's a sample of what I got back: Please Accept Thanks, Regarding Incumbent's Over-Throw Pernicious, Arrogant, Terrifying Republican Initiative Obfuscates Truth from Dave Paternal American Totalitarian Religious Oligarchial Technocracy Act from Ned Petro Agents Terrorize Republic In Outmoded Terms from Rowl Pretentious Assholes Terrorize Really Innocent "Other" (as) Target from Tim Particularly Asinine, The Republicans' Indictment of Themselves from John, Rowl Persuasive Ashcroft Takeover Repudiating Inherence Of Truth from Faith Philistinic Appropriation (of) The Real Islam of Today from Faith Promoting Auspicious Trendy Rapacious Idiots On TV from Betsy Peace And Truth Reside In Our Tanks from Betsy+Rowl Potentate's Arbitrary Tyrannical Repression Instead Of Townmeetings from Tom Pillaging America's Twilit Rights In Our Time from Faith Passive Aggressive Tyranny Rule In Obfuscated Theatrics from Robert Paternalistic Authoritarian Territorial Rightwing Interests Over-ruling Truth from Margo, CO Putrid Authoritarian Threat Really Invades Our Territory from Carla Patriarchal Ambitious Thickheaded Rightwingers Insist On Tale-telling from Toby Punishing Arabs To Retain Iraq's Oil Treasure from Toby Pernicious Attempt To Randomly Imply Our Treason from B.
