With the sting of telecom immunity still in my mind, this was the first thing I heard on yesterday's Democracy Now broadcast. As a progressive, I am very concerned with the continued direction of my party's leaders, including Senator Obama. After hearing yesterday that Obama was not in support of investigating the Bush administration for illegal activities, I went to the Green Party website and signed a petition to allow it to be on this November's NC ballot.
If a Democratic president were to do what Bush has done, that Democrat and his minions would already be swinging from a rope.
When are the Democrats going to stand for something other than big interest money?
The only time we "regular" people get even a small influence is during elections. I won't vote for a candidate that doesn't reflect my value that the Constitution and our nations laws mean something. Nobody, including the President, is above the law.
