Fucktard. I called Nelson (fl) again today and was told he voting for this bill whether retroactive immunity is stripped from it or not. Fucktard.

Here, we had a backroom deal with the Dem leadership lying in public, all to stall liberal and rule of law opposition. Obama can't win that fight solo, but this is the worst bill since the Military Commission Act of 2006, and arguably worse. There are some very craven and corrupt Dems we need to oust.

Kos is right. John Cole (Balloon-Juice), and others, have taken the position of surrender. They'd rather Obama swing Waaaay to the right and give in to this bill if that's what it takes to get elected this November. I can see both sides of the "don't rock the boat" argument. But I have to side with the majority in that I want to see Obama do the right thing - Now! I see no problem with Obama simply voting no, especially if immunity is left intact. If he votes yes, then we have another worthless "off the table - Pelosi" democrat. I'm sorry. If his voting no will drive so many people into voting for McCain, we're fucked as a country anyways... and not worthy of saving. Yep, I agree. Kos is right.

So thanks, Ms. ?G. :) Kos is right about the intensity dimming for Obama over his stand on FISA. That's how it has affected me. He better do the right thing this week. At least his campaign has dumped the pretentious prez seal: http://www.examiner.com/a-1455131~Obama_campaign_drops_seal_on_podium.html Since I rarely turn on my TV, I’m grateful to blogs when they post Olbermann.
