Change For A Nickel

OMG! Did I just step oustide of the looking glass? I was watching the news yesterday and couldn’t believe my ears when I heard that Congress actually did something ballsy. They issued contempt citations and subpoenas agains John Bolton and Harriet Miers. If that didn’t show a bit of backbone they also did not yield to the President when he basically said we would all be killed by terrorists if the new FISA bill was not passed! This was the bill that would also give the large telecom companies retroactive immunity from all those wiretaps on you and me. Wow! Now that is amazing! Too bad they had to wait for the Republicans to walk out of the assembly before they took their vote. I guess it’s a matter of taking baby steps.
