interests of a fellow republican, when you have mcconnell saying what he did, that's very unusual in washington. for once president obama gets to look on national security issues like the responsible quiet voice urging compromise. he's working with john boehner of all people to get legislation passed. but it was an extraordinary weekend that exposed what i think are much deeper tensions in the party. >> congressman, where do you come down on this question that rand paul raises of privacy versus security? >> well, i'll go back to something somebody a lot earlier said, benjamin franklin. he said those willing to trade their freedom for security deserve neither and will probably lose both. we can do it the right way. last year i co-sponsored a rewrite of the patriot act with jim sensenbrenner. it came out of the judiciary committee unanimously and then the rules committee changed it. it completely changed it so that sensenbrenner, myself and others voted against it.
