Here's Rep. Courtney with a message about FISA/PAA (Tip of the Hat: Darcy Burner):
Yes, we can protect the country legally, without giving immunity to those who helped Bush break the law.
BTW... did he film this in a ritzy bathroom or something?
Anyway, it's good framing. It's going to take continued education/communication with the public to keep the fight going, even with a lame duck Bush in office, some Dems (esp. in the Senate) are still too eager to cave in. Good to see Courtney not falling into that pattern. And also note the timing with just-elected Democrat/scientist Bill Foster who ran on an anti-telecom immunity, anti-Iraq war platform - and won - in a red district whose previous occupant was Denny Hastert.
