http://my.barackobama.com/page/community/blog_rss/briansbarack/html Reactions and Observations from a Self-Confessed Northern Liberal I had sent in a letter asking Barack to vote NO on the FISA law - specifically due to the telecom immunity ammendment. I just got the response - and the main reason seems to be to "compromise" (with who? the Bush administration?). I say the compromise is between Barack and the Constitution. From Article 1, Section 9, "Limits on Congress": <br /> <br /> No Bill of Attainder or ex post facto Law shall be passed.<br /> <br /> So Barack is compromising his duties to the Constitution (which he has pledged to support as a member of Congress) and in the same breath makes a "firm pledge" to us that he really will follow the rules. <br /> <br /> I think that Barack is making nice with some impotent democrats instead of looking to the public for support. http://my.barackobama.com/page/community/post/briansbarack/gGxs87 http://my.barackobama.com/page/community/post/briansbarack/gGxs87/commentary#comments Thu, 03 Jul 2008 07:47:06 EDT http://my.barackobama.com/page/community/post/briansbarack/gGxs87 Brian Brian 5 http://my.barackobama.com/page/community/comment_rss/gGxs87/
