When Pres. George W. Bush and Sen. Barack Obama BOTH agreed on unconstitutional amendments to the foreign intelligence surveillance act (FISA) last week, it raised questions about Obama's consistency on civil liberties and about how to best fight this assault on the Fourth Amendment and the right to privacy. I try to answer these questions with some clips from a Barack Obama news conference and from spokespeople for the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU)You can see the full July 1, 2008, Barack Obama news conference from which I took a short clip for my video at http://cbs2chicago.com/video/?... can see ACLU Legislative Counsel Michelle Richardson's full June 21, 2008, appearance on C-SPAN's Washington Journal at http://www.c-spanarchives.org/... can see more about the ACLU's fight against the FISA Amendments Act (including the ACLU video from which I took a short clip) at http://www.aclu.org/safefree/n... you can see Sen. Barack Obama's full February 16, 2006, statement on the USA PATRIOT Act Reauthorization at http://obama.senate.gov/speech...

USA LOVERS & Republicans! - Obama is out spending John S. McCain by margins of 3:1 or 4:1 in all battleground states. This, together with the bad economic situation, explains McCain's numbers in the polls. If McCain has to have a fighting chance, concerned citizens should at least make a minimum contribution to the McCain-Palin Victory 2008 compliance fund now! Its now or never! Otherwise be ready for a thugocracy under a President Obama. Go to JohnMcCain(dot)com NOW!

Yeah I remember.Now they have dropped Global Warming and now call it climate shift.Of course maybe it's because more and more of the Global Warming theory is being proven wrong.

remember global warming? You guys laugh at Gore and now every other word that comes out of your mouths is trying to prove that you're more environmentally friendly than the asshole next to you.

Liberals hate this country? If liberals hated this country they wouldn't be fighting you morons to make it better, while these Republican nutjobs act like there's nothing wrong. We try to address an issue and try to fight to fix it and they call us unpatriotic. What's unpatriotic is killing young Americans and hiding these problems behind our backs so that no one tries to make things better.

One of the first honest liberals? You're one of of the first non-retarted republicans I've seen. Liberals and conservatives will lie, but at least the liberals I know recognize and admit when their officials are wrong, like Obama or Pelosi. GOD I hate Pelosi. I think Kucinich and Paul are the only two left with souls in congress.

Thank you. As a republican, I honestly think you very courageous to admit Obama was for the bill consistantly. Likewise, I'm against it, and my candidate is for it. You're one of the first honest liberals I've seen. ;)
