Senator Obama,
It is amazing, your words and actions regarding the the deplorable bill on FISA that would allow the president to spy on Americans and give immunity to telecom corporations that violated federal laws. It is amazing, how you think that we should sacrifice our Constitution and Bill of Rights because you are afraid. It is amazing, that you think supporting this reprehensible bill and avoiding a vote on cloture are examples of leadership. It is amazing, that you think your constituents and the people who have, up to now, supported your bid to become the next president are either so low-informed or just too stupid to know what you and Congress are trying to do.
I will not trade in my freedoms because the republicans want me to, or even because of a whole army of terrorists. Ich bin ein Berliner. Look it up. “Those that will give up freedom for some temporary security deserve neither freedom or security”. Look that up to. Those were leaders. They gave us change that we could actually believe in. What do we have now? Either outright liars, or triangulators and calculators looking for every angle to advance their careers. A chance of true leadership has passed you by, Senator. A chance for change that could be believed. This will not be forgotten.
