Democracy for Vancouver

They may have passed cloture on the FISA bill (scumbags), but the bill is still out there, and I’m enough of a pollyanna to think we may still be able to do something (this is an election year, after all).

So PLEASE, call and call and call again, throughout the next week and until the Senate comes back into session after the July 4th recess.

All you Democrats who were elected in 2006 - do you really think this kind of bullshit is what we elected you for???

Oh, yeah, and Senators McCain, Clinton and Obama: WHAT THE FUCK? A vote on the sanctity of the Constitution comes second to your fucking campaigns? Your fucking debt service, Senator Clinton? You are not worthy of the Oval Office.

Now all of you preening bootlickers : get off your asses and shove this thing back down the shithole it crawled out of.
