Probably everybody has heard of Sensenbrenner's fairly outrageous choice on Friday to cut off Patriot Act testimony (literally, in the middle of a speaker, he shut off the microphones) when he didn't like how it was going. Think Progress ties that one outrage into a whole line of recent actions that show that the House Judiciary Chairman has very little regard for government openness or citizen civil rights. Quite eye-opening.
