I spoke with Air America’s Randi Rhodes on Monday about the President being the real terrorist. Randi told me and her audience that she didn’t think the country could get “it’s head around that right now”. I think it’s time for American citizens to get their heads around that now. Have you called your Congressperson and Senators about getting this evil bastard out of office? WHY NOT? - JS

Some of the transcript from Keith Olbermann’s discussion with Rep. Harman:

Olbermann: “Nobody doubts the existence of terrorism or terrorists or the need to act on their existence, but at this point, is our freedom beginning to be or even now already at greater risk from terrorism, or from people who are exploiting the fact of terrorism to gain unprecedented and perhaps irreversible rights to spy and detain and rendition and everything else?”

Harman: “Well, I think this is a-a quite a scary period in our history and there are right answers. We can get surveillance right. I think most of us, maybe all of us in the House and in the Senate support surveilling people who are trying to harm us, but we can do that within the careful framework of FISA. FISA is not broken. What’s broken is the view of executive power that some hold in the administration. They claim it trumps all laws and our constitution.”
