F*CK FISA

I hate, hate, hate the new FISA bill (which previously had passed in the House and got the Senate's A-OK today). I hate, hate, hate that Obama voted for it and its cloture motion. The fact that he voted for the three amendments (1, 2, 3) is some consolation, but not nearly enough.

(McCain didn't even show up. The last time he voted in the Senate was on April 8.) Too busy distancing himself from Sen. Phil Graham, apparently, who called America "a nation of whiners" yesterday).

I've been trying to think of something more interesting to say about this, but I seem to be out of words. And also - I have to update my journal note now. Drat.
