talking about FISA. there does not appear to be a single person alive who is on board with congress on this issue. this gives me hope that it won't pass the senate.

1. No kidding...
Who was the rep yesterday that something like, "although my constituents are against it, I'm voting for it."? What is wrong with these politicians?

3. Harmon (D-CA) said that.
she is a piece of work. Nancy Pelousy and she don't care much for each other.

5. Yup, I thought I remembered it was Harmon...
Yeah, Pelosi spent most of her time yesterday thanking everybody that came up with this "compromise"... sheesh.

I was fired up by what Dennis said, though... I really dig Dennis Kucinich.

4. i believe that was jane harman
since i posted 2 people, one democrat and one republican, called in support of the bill. both sounded ignorant. the republican said he thinks the government should tap all calls.

6. Yeah, you're right, it was Harmon. Well, that caller sure has the fear in him...
I really wish people would listen to Ben Franklin's great quote... the one that Kucinich mentioned.

2. The members of the House of Representatives
seem to have forgotten who exactly they are suppose to be representing. Even Republican citizens are appalled by this bill.
