Democrat? Kick the Bums Out along with the Rupublicans - FISA Senate Immunity Vote a Disgusting Travesty
It’s so time to vote out all of these bums - every last one of them. How much more will you take?
February 12, 2008
Republicans: 48 yea, 0 nay, 1 absent (Graham of South Carolina) (Including Lieberman as a Democrat.
Democrats: 20 yea, 29 nay, 2 absent (Obama and Clinton)
And how interesting that of the Democrats, only the presidential candidates missed the final vote. The vote occurred between 5:30 p.m. and 6 p.m., hardly an inconvenient time.
UPDATE (10:50 p.m.): A statement from President Bush.
The House of Representatives now has an opportunity to put aside narrow partisan concerns and come together to pass this bipartisan bill and send it to my desk without delay. Our intelligence professionals and private sector partners need the certainty of long-term legislation that will allow us to keep programs in place to protect the Nation, so that the flow of critical intelligence information is not interrupted.
