Sen. Chris Dodd is threatening a filibuster of the new bill that would expand FISA to grant retroactive legal immunity for telecoms (AT&T, etc.) for spying on us at the behest of the Bush Regime. (And you know who's first in line to stop him from doing so? Our "Democratic" Majority leader, Harry Reid. Jayzus.)

Not that you've heard about it from the mainstream media. It's all over the blogs... but not the "news".

Go here to sign up your support for Sen. Dodd. I mean, unless you really want BushCo and the phone companies spying on your calls. In which case, bluntly, you're full of shit. This isn't partisan. This is yet another impingement upon our freedoms.

(I am not yet really supporting any candidate for president. Edwards is closest on my list. But he's dropping the ball on this kinda stuff, and if Dodd runs with this one and a few others....)

I agree that violating the constitution should never have happened. I think that there should have been a way for us to get the information we needed without breaking the fourth ammendment. Yes it would have been harder and more work but that's the point. As a country we should have been willing to go that extra mile because we're the United States of America.

Like you Tom I'm undecided on a candidate. I have my own criteria, being a conservative Christian, and though I'm sure there's not much we'll agree on politically I'm glad that there are some things that we can and do agree on.
