It's not.  It's the PATRIOT Act.  PATRIOT is an acronym.
Exactly. And what is the acronym for?

At the very least, leave it in place -I would rather err on the side of caution rather than risk having another terrorist attack on our home soil as a result -direct or indirect- of having the PATRIOT Act repealed. 
It's not as if that was all that likely a scenario though.
