@RepThomasMassie

Here are the 118 Representatives who voted to protect your right to privacy. (Nay to FISA warrantless surveillance as part of NDAA)

We lost but it was close. We needed 143 votes (1/3) to stop FISA since they suspended the rules to bring it to the floor.

[RandFan]

It passed then.

[Major Matt Mason]

A loss is a loss, close or otherwise.

[DesertRhino]

Sickening

[gibsonguy]

A list of the 25 traitor would be more useful.

[BipolarBob]

It looks like all of my states reps voted to deprive me of my Constitutional Right to privacy.

[RandFan]

I hope they hear from you

[Revel]

And many of us have lived under the delusion that the republicans holding congress actually meant anything.

[fretzer]

The spineless RINO that represents my district is all in on NDAA votes.

[RandFan]

Sick.

Please make sure he hears from you

[Dalberg-Acton]

I knew that bastard Elzey would vote for warrantless wiretaps.
Ted Cruz voting for it yesterday surprised me though.

[RandFan]

As it did me. Have you got an explanation from Cruz yet? I’d like to hear it frankly

[VAFreedom]

73 r and 45 d voted against.

probably for different reasons.

[Dead Corpse]

I haven’t. Then again, I was given a number of “time outs” for being vocal about Tea Party/libertarian as an option to the GOP.

For the record, my milquetoast Representative, Tom Emmer (R-MN), voted for this crap. So much for the House Majority Whip being any kind of a conservative.

[Dead Corpse]

I wish I could say Emmer surprised me... but he’s going the McConnell/McCarthy/quisling-GOP route...

[DugwayDuke]

Can someone explain how we should monitor the electronic communications of terrorists and spies without FISA.

[zeugma]

Any time it is a close vote like that, you can be sure that many people who would otherwise vote for, were given a pass to vote against, since TPTB already knew it wasn’t going to pass.

[zeugma]

Ted Cruz voting for it yesterday surprised me though.

Not me. He talks a good game, but when the chips are down, he's effectively establishment.

[Shady]

I see Molinaro voted FOR it. Primary coming up.

[zeugma]

Can someone explain how we should monitor the electronic communications of terrorists and spies without FISA.

They can get a freaking warrant just like it is specified in the Constitution, that's how. It isn't like they don't have rubber stamps they have on speed dial that will sign of on anything requested. They should have to at least pretend that the Constitution means something.

I'm not surprised one tiny bit that you support this crap.
