Looks like Senator Obama has some harsh words for our president.

On June 6th, CNN released the following video of Senator Obama’s stance on civil liberties and the Patriot Act during his 2008 campaign.

In hindsight, it’s pretty ironic to hear Senator Obama campaign for protecting the Constitution in light of his administration’s actions.

Fast forward five years later — the Patriot Act is alive and well.
