Obama Losing Voters Over FISA Support

Corrupt writes "I've admired Obama, but I never confused him with a genuine progressive leader. Today I don't admire him at all. His collapse on FISA is unforgivable. The only thing Obama has going for him this week is that McCain is matching him misstep for misstep."

    The last time there was a REAL fight that mattered, Clinton won twice. Gore and Kerry supporters blaming Nader instead of their own idiocies and inadequacies (Gore couldn't win TN or AR and is crazy; Kerry was a yankee liberal leftie snob-boy who couldn't do something to win over people who were perfectly willing to go more centrist). Democrats, like good liberals, blame everything but themselves for their shortcomings.

    I was going to vote for you. I was willing to accept what you said was probably mostly true. You seemed like a change.

    You are just another politician who doesn't give a shit about anything but power.

    "Faith Based" initiatives do not belong in a nation that values separation of church and state.

    Warrentless wiretapping does not belong in a country that has the 4th amendment.

    Sorry, but you suck, but it just looks like 4 years of Barrack McCain Bush and the beginning of the 100 years war of resources, collapse of freedom and science, and the end of the dream of the founding fathers. Fuck you.

    The U.S.A. is lost. We may have defeated the Nazis, but the fascists won WWII. I pity my children.

    Excuse me for not being a single issue voter, excuse me for not considering him instantly an idiot before hearing his explanation of his actions.

    grow up and realize that sometimes to get a gain we also have to suffer a loss, in this case it's a loss that may not matter and if it does can be rescinded later

    Their actions are directly aiding and abetting terrorists by reducing the freedoms that those terrorists despise

    Hey there, the only people that believe that terrorists hate our freedoms are Ron Paul supporters, Bush supporter, FOX Noise viewers and the insane crazy homeless guy I always see lurking around the Subway hoping people will give him half the sandwich.

    AlQaeda attacked us for having military bases in Islamic holy lands, they had been threatening the US for over 15 years over the fact. Funny, ever since we removed our bases from Saudi Arabia (Bush's pals you know), we haven't been attacked. Hrm cause and effect? Maybe, unless you support Paul or Bush then its just wild coincidence.

    At least you and are are on the same side of the Ron Paul thing. He's the new Nader.
