You give a little, I give a little. It's called compromise. That's what this man, Obama, is all about. It turns out that active movement away from partisanship is really what he meant by 'change'. Apparently he does not see compromise as a forced triangulation like it was for Clinton who kept having to bow down to the GOP-packed Congress. Obama is initiating these compromises on his own, forcing a redefinition of progress. So this FISA thing is part of his larger strategy to unify the country.
When you talk about national issues, please don't go emulating Bush transforming every policy into dichotomies. There IS a gray area here. I'm not saying that Obama's vote can't be bought or that Obama is right, but seriously this is not a direct attack on the Constitution. Obama is not spying on anyone at least not yet. You saw how filled with glee the vote made Bush who really has been violating the Constitution. I would venture to guess that the Democrats did it for some backroom favors either from Bush's telco friends or the GOP side of Congress.

Nader is so tough on corporate crime that he supports the Fair Tax!
