Here is how Democrats should be ALL talking about the FISA Bill just passed by Congress. Briefly, FISA is the 'court' of sorts that the Federal Government is supposed to get approval from in order to wiretap Americans. Of course, the Bush Administration's illegal wiretapping program completely circumvented FISA jurisdiction.
So, this bill was proposed to make it LESS illegal. Right......so we've got an Attorney General that lies to Congress and does anything he can to cover up the illegal activities of this Administration. Instead of impeaching him, the Congress gives him MORE latitude in spying on Americans. Unbelievable!!
By the way, that is Darcy Burner talking. She narrowly lost election to the U.S. Congress in 2006. She's taking her energy, plain talking, and progressive ideas on the road once again and will be victorious in 2008. You can support her campaign by donating through Act Blue.

I have called my senators, boxer and feinstein, to express my great disappointment at this outrageous vote. We need to keep after them.
