« Bananarama! | Main | The military speaks » Harry Reid - fighter!Check out these strong words from Senate Majority Leader Reid: [I]f people think they are going to talk this to death, we are going to be in here all night. This is not something we are going to have a silent filibuster on. If someone wants to filibuster this bill, they are going to do it in the openness of the Senate. Whooo! Way to go Harry! That's the way to force these Republican obstructionists to... oh. Oh wait. Oh. Umm, it turns out that the bill Reid is referring to is the one that increases Bush's wiretapping powers and grants immunities to the telecom industry. And his comments are directed, not at Republicans, but at Democratic Senators Dodd and Feingold. Seriously: what the fuck? Here's Glenn Greenwald's post on this insanity, and also see the post on how the Dems are letting Josh Bolton and Harriet Miers get away with ignoring congressional subpoenas.
