How will BO justify selling out?

FIRST--TELECOM IMMUNITY IS A BIPARTISAN ISSUE. This is not just the crazy "Frankenstein villagers of the far left" condemning telecom immunity....but I bet our alleged leaders will try to spin it that way. The American people are speaking out against shredding our constitution and our rule of law. What the House did yesterday has disillusioned the vast majority of folks in this country NOT just on the left...There is NOTHING benefiting the public interest in the concept of telecom immunity and the American people understand that this is the ultimate rape and we are forced to pay for the vaseline. Yesterday's post has a youtube of Cspan callers-- REPUBLICANS, Democrats, and Independents. EVERY CALLER was shocked, disgusted, and appalled with what Congress was doing. The people get it but Congress doesn't. (On the Cspan show I only heard ONE caller happy with the Congressional decision and he was definitely an extreme right winger. "For the first time" the people of America made me very proud and our leaders shamed our country.

I am shocked and appalled that OB "chose" to sell out. I waited with bated breath for his press release. Feingold is correct and honestly direct when he said this is NOT a compromise it's capitulation and there's no reason for this....not if we honestly have a two party system in this country. Surely my most hopeful candidate, OB, would speak out strongly against this injustice to the people. Unfortunately I only got a rude awakening.

The telecom immunity clause crushes the brave Americans who worked within the system to try to do the job that Congress was NOT doing....the people who stepped up took the burden upon themselves to protect our Constitution and our rule of law by utilizing America's justice system. So Congress and BO spring into action to PREVENT Americans from getting the accountability and rule of law that is our birthright? Congress and BO REFUSE to hold anyone accountable, REFUSE to honor their oath of office and they do Bush's dirty work and cut Americans off at the knees who attempt to make the "elite" accountable.

So Obama now faces a true test. He promotes participatory democracy....IF he is true to his word then we will see Obama change course and strike out strongly in words and deeds to strip the telecom immunity clause from that bill.

This is my hope for the Obama for president campaign. And it is not because I'm a Frankenstein villager of the left. It is because I am an American who continues to hope.

Buzz...Buzz...

The people speak...are any of our alleged leaders listening to us?

Anyone who votes for telecom immunity does not belong in Congress OR our White House.

SHAME ON CONGRESS

Amen Keith Olberman....Shame on Jim Webb for JOINING the Bush/Cheney war crime folks AND the special interests corporate lawbreakers. So much for his oath to defend our civil liberties, the rule of law, and our constitution.

Hopefully, there will be a day of reckoning and Senator Harry Reid,Senator Rockefeller, and other Dems who want to be complicit in the Bush war crimes can share adjoining cells to George Bush and Dick Cheney.

Why the Democrats were so quick to help the Republicans cover up so much info that would have come out in court....information such as...Bush's illegal wireless surveillance program has NOTHING to do with capturing terrorists or 9/11....In fact Bush started the program BEFORE 9/11 occurred......

Makes me wonder how many Dems like Harry Reid, Rockefeller, ex dem Lieberman have been comlicit partners in the Bush war crimes.

WE are NOT going to forget this folks. The majority leader and the party are now brazenly supporting the Republican agenda. We need folks to run against these turncoats....

To the Democratic Contenders. Barack Obama made sure he voted on this important bill...and he voted to uphold our constitution. Hillary Clinton was in Washington but Hillary could not be bothered to take the time to do her job...the job she is being paid to do as a Senator. Sorry Hillary, but I'll say it again. Yours is the type of experience this country does not need any more of.

Hopefully, some of us will be able to take some time to follow the telecommunication money trail so we can report who the Dems are that can be bought. We don't need any more Senators for Corporations and special interests in "our" Congress....It's ready for our Congress to REJECT the OLD EXPERIENCE AND CREATE AN HONEST WAY TO DO THE PEOPLE'S BUSINESS....

Any chance the House Dems have encough shreds of honesty to do the right thing and not approve the Senate version with it's telecommunications immunity? (A piece of the bill that has NOTHING TO DO WITH PROTECTING THE PUBLIC AND IS ANTITHETICAL TO THE PUBLIC'S INTEREST.

BUZZ...BUZZ...
