The 4th amendment is going to be eviscerated

[malaise]

tomorrow - Jonathan Turley. It's being done for political reasons. it is not a compromise.

[LSparkle]

1. I love Jonathan Turley ... he absolutely speaks truth

Which is why his pronouncement about what's going down
tomorrow is so chilling.

[AntiFascist]

23. With all due respect to Jonathan Turley, I don't like how this is being framed...

isn't it possible that with enough political pressure from constituents (phone calls, etc.) that Senators might compromise by taking out telecom immunity, or delaying it, and passing the bill in its amended form? I realize that Bush has threatened to veto the bill if immunity is removed, but what about the proposed amendment to delay immunity for 3 months allowing for congressional review?

4. The neocons won

[TechBear_Seattle]

9. Same difference

And let us not forget: They won with the seemingly enthusiastic assistance of the Democrats.

[Individualist]

18. The neocons and their DLC enablers won

[freesqueeze]

3. I wonder why...

so little fuss is being made about this.

Don't people still revere the US Constitution?

6. My guess at this point is that most just think like GWB... It's just a piece of paper....

We are so F***ed in this country... When our own Congress members are letting us down, it's time to put the closed sign on the door.

[FiveGoodMen]

12. They sure don't think so when it's the 2nd Amendment!

Apparently, the others don't matter, though.

5. Love Turley but damn what he said was so...

...I don't have the words.


Rachel said it was "heart wrenching"

I guess I'll let her speak for me.

[malaise]

11. Too sad

:cry:

[az chela]

7. everyone in office is too damn lazy to do anything about it

What a government we have or should I say DONT HAVE?

[TahitiNut]

22. Why should they when We The People don't care enough to strike fear in their hearts?

:shrug: When the politicians stop fearing The People, then The People should be afraid of the politicians.

8. I'm in tears right now.

I'm trying to compose myself because I have every intention of e-mailing Dick Durbin and Barack Obama about how I feel. This is traitorous at the very least....

Goddamn them all to hell... Reid, Pelosi, Hoyer and the rest.

[midnight]

10. Yep......

[malaise]

13. Why is Dan Abrams framing this as left versus right

this is about the fucking constitution.

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

14. Because Dan Abrams is an asshole. n/t

[FiveGoodMen]

15. The constitution IS a right v. left issue.

Never more so than now.

[xxqqqzme]

20. Yes, it is.

There is no way in hell a bunch of conservatives could have written it. The Constitution of the United States is a LIBERAL document. It is one reason the neocons hate it so.

[Marblehead]

16. we are a step

closer to a police state...:mad:

[papapi]

17. Amendment IV, R.I.P.

The Darkest Day

[EbenezerMcIntosh]

Beginning with the USSC.

[bdamomma]
