Barack Obama is proving himself to be little more than Joe Lieberman in blackface. Oy gevalt. Cowardly Dems in the Senate (Led by Obama the Coward) passed FISA, out of fear that big meanie Bush might say something bad about them if they didn’t. As if he won’t, anyway. Duh! [detail]
As much as I dislike Hillary Clinton, at least she had the decency to vote against it.
John W. McCain didn’t even bother to show up for the vote…
The ACLU has announced it will fight the unconstitutional law in court.
Civil Liberties? WHAT civil liberties??? Bush kills Civil Liberties Board.
Time to put on your jack boots and Seig Hiel! US military to monitor internet to quell dissent.
Standing up for the truth. SC state employee quits rather than lower flag for toxic Senator Jesse Helms.
Ted Kennedy, who is battling brain cancer, surprised the Senate by showing up to vote on the Medicaid bill yesterday.

Marriage equality. MA Senate to consider repealing law that prevents gays from other states from marrying there.
Phil Graham has a mental slowdown, and calls USA a nation of whiners for caring that the GOP has destroyed the economy. If only we’d just focus on how much better off the filthy-rich are, and forget about everyone else.
Life imitates art. Paradise, CA — subject of the Eagles song The LastResort, and inspiration for the Showtime series Weeds — evacuated for wildfire. “Somebody laid the mountains low, while the town got high.”
