Change We Can Believe In

…telecom immunity is a genuine test of Barack Obama’s bona fides on civil liberties. It’s also a genuine test of the liberal side of any liberal-libertarian fusionism.
I think it’s very possibly a test that Obama has already failed. I have a sneaking suspicion that, as the de facto leader of the Democratic Party, Obama could have kept the bill from getting even this far with a quiet word or two. Nothing stopped him from dragging Steny Hoyer and Harry Reid into the same corner where he buttonholed Joe Lieberman. If the House and Senate leadership really did sneak the bill past him last week, which I’m not inclined to believe, still nothing stopped him from shutting them down this week. Except if he either doesn’t consider it important enough to be worth his time and credibility, or if he’s just as happy that the measure might pass.
Someday, all you fanboys will get what I’ve been saying here for the last two years. Too bad it’s already too late.

United States of America is the best country on this earth. Just look at the throngs of people lining to enter our country. Why does Obama want a change. He has no clue what change he wants to bring. I donot want to see any change in this country. It is doing nicely, I do want illegal immigration stop cold at our borders. Obama has no intention of stopping that. He will be a disater to our nation if elected as the next President.
