Frist was just on Cavuto...and said that HE was going to offer Bush's legislation...against the one by McCain, Warner, Graham and Collins...
Cavuto asked Frist is this wasn't just a big backhand by the GOP Senators to the POTUS....Frist said, "no, just a difference of opinion"...blech.
Considering that Bush personally went to the Congress and lobbied for his bill...and they STILL voted it down..will get the Chrissy Matthews and Timmah Russerts all EXCITED!!
The GOP Congress is actually turning their backs on Bush...so it must mean that Bush HAS been doing things illegaly...blah, blah, blah.
Not only are they taking tools out of the hands of our intelligence community....but, they have just basically emasculated the POTUS/CIC while we are at WAR..and during a very critical time..
First of all...all of this had gotten the Bushbot in me ALL riled up....and I am more afraid than ever that our country is going to hell...we can NOT count on our own party to keep us safe.
I feel...trapped. We can't count on the leadership in our own party. WHERE do we turn?
What a disgrace these men and Ms Collins are.
I wonder if any of them realize that WITHOUT the program it is quite likely the London plane plot may well have happened.
I am so mad I'm not fit for human company. This nonsense about what we can do to interrogate terrorists is making us look like idiots.
Now the terrorists will know what we're allowed to do and we won't even be able to let them think we're going to physically harm them.
And what is this about jihadists being entitled to the Geneva Conventions anyway? They don't wear a uniform and they don't represent nation states. Aaaargh.
