The Next Democratic Capitulation?

It's like clockwork isn't it. Go read Glenn Greenwald, and (as always) prepare to be outraged at another big sloppy Democratic kiss for George W. Bush.

Are Democrats planning still worse FISA capitulations?

"..the very idea that the Bush White House would be able to force enactment of FISA legislation once Democrats controlled the Congress would have seemed unfathomable, at least to many people. But after watching the Democrats meekly sit by and allow abolition of habeas corpus and then, when in control of Congress, grant the President vast new surveillance powers without receiving anything in exchange, it is inescapably clear that there are no limits on the willingness of Congressional Democrats to enable the President's worst excesses. If this NYT story is accurate and they really do intend to provide this retroactive immunity, their joint responsibility for most of the excesses of the Bush administration will be virtually complete.."

Exactly.
