Another FISA Monday
Seems that Monday is FISA day in the Senate. That's the day some Senators argue that we should forgive the telephone companies, as Vice President Cheney says, "that have worked with us and helped us prevent further attacks against the United States." (Big news. Cheney says they did it. if you haven't seen this Keith Olberman clip, stop reading this and click through.)If you want to stop the U.S. slide towards becoming a surveillance state, please call your Senator, especially if he or she is on this list. More depth here. An effective way to make your opinion known is here.
UPDATE: The ACLU fact sheet on this bill is here.
Debate starts right about now. The vote on amnesty for bad actors is scheduled for tomorrow.
UPDATE: A vote on Feb 5, super-poll day? With neither Clinton nor Obama present? WTF???
