Four freshman Democrats voted in favor of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act which passed over the weekend. Only one of those votes against it, would have stopped it’s passage. I don’t have a whole lot of confidence in the democratic senators in Congress. What were they thinking as the Bush administration continues to erode our Constitutional rights and put more and more power in the Executive Branch.
On the war side, I keep hearing of progress being made in the field. Where is that progress as more and more troops are being killed by roadside bombs? While this is going on and civilians and military are dying, the political leaders of the US and Iraq are on vacation. Makes no sense to me!
