If you're disappointed in Obama over the USA PATRIOT Act, that's your own fault - he was very clear about his opinions on USA PATRIOT from long before he ran for office, as early as 2003 (or 2006?). Obama has voted in favour of expanding/extending the USA PATRIOT Act's powers from the earliest possible time that he had US lawmaking influence.

There are many reasons to be disappointed in Obama perhaps, but he was clear about this from Day 1: He supports unchecked US domestic spying.
