#2: even disempowered, the GOP made a lot of trouble for clinton (worse when they won the majority).  It'll get interesting eventually, when they start coming up with all sorts of crazy theories about how it was really Obama who killed vince foster.

John Mccain Called his wife WHAT??

My favorite headline? "Obama Will Eat Abe Lincoln's Food." no lie.

John Mccain Called his wife WHAT??

What is Obama thinking?  How could he weaken so dramatically our protections against terrorism?   Doesn't he realize that without warrantless FISA wiretaps we could never have uncovered the plot to destroy the Brooklyn Bridge (how could we have gotten a warrant for conversations about the bridge when we didn't yet know that al Qaeda had it in its sights?)  Has he forgotten that we only found the name of the operative who was tasked with destroying the bridge because we subjected Kahlid Mohammed, the mastermind of 9-11, to "rough" interrogation techniques?  Does he really mean to leave us vulnerable to terrorist attacks? [...]

I don't agree with Obama, but all he is doing is applying the same rationale to the war on terror.  Will his appointments and new procedures leave us more vulnerable to terrorist attack?  Yes.  Do they make another 9-11 or worse more likely? Yes.  Is the president putting his strict view of constitutional requirements ahead of the safety of his constituents?  Yes, again.

He won't tell the truth, anymore than the Warren Court admitted that its new rules would increase crime.  But that is precisely what he is doing and doing consciously with full knowledge of the likely consequences.  In the mind of this constitutional law professor we have elected president, a strict interpretation of what the constitution permits the government to do in dealing with foreign terrorists who would attack us is more important than stopping the attacks. [...]

But Obama doesn't see it that way. We can only hope that once he comes to grips with the truly horrific consequences that will inevitably flow from his neutering of our intelligence gathering abilities that he will have a change of heart (or that we will have a change of presidents four years hence).

A conservative is a man with two perfectly good legs who, however, has never learned how to walk forward. Franklin D. Roosevelt
