2008-07-14-16:26 - On the bright side
As many of you I was frustrated to see shredding of the 4th amendment that was the FISA bill passing. Obama support of the "compromise" did not win him any favors from me. This kind of "movement to the center" poorly thought out.

How many people even know what the FISA bill was? Of those that do know, how many of them do you think are are "undecided voters?" I'd say close to none. Failing to stand up on FISA made Obama no friends and undercut the enthusiasm of some of his supporters.

Still on the bright side Obama has enthusiastic supporters and the support of a unified Democratic party. McCain on the other hand is still trying to sell himself to movement conservatives. For instance in an effort to convince fundamentalist that he hates gays as much as they do McCain recently explained that he doesn't want gay couples to adopt children. In McCain's mind being raised in a orphanage is better than being raised by a loving gay couple.

>>let me tell you this about that!
