Well, it had to happen sooner or later. While unshaken in my support because he is doing a lot of things right, i have to lay down the obama gear and hold the donations for a few months after he decided to back the new FISA bill. I know there has to be some angle in this, but i don’t see it. The dude taught constitutional law, he’s got to know this FISA bill is poo-poo on a stick.

Anyway, at least a few brave souls have stood up and intend to block this puppy . . . wow, did i just call Reid a brave soul? oh man.

Maybe the angle is he does this to look “strong” on national defense to the general population and rest assured knowing his fellow dems are going to make sure this doesn’t pass. Hmm . . . after thinking about that, I really don’t like that angle. It’s out of character and a bit too shady for the politics of hope. Also, this looking strong business ends up making him look stupid.

regardless, i’m at a double loss since pelosi is actually represents my district. ooph. so both my candidate and my rep have screwed the american people. i need to go make some phone calls.
