Clinton And Obama Break Promise To Stop Spying Immunity for Phone CompaniesFirst, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton both promised to be there in the Senate to help Senator Chris Dodd defeat efforts to extend the Protect America Act and give telecommunications companies legal immunity for helping the Bush White House break the law by spying on American citizens without a search warrant or any other form of judicial supervision required by the Constitution and by federal law. Second, Senator Dodd tried today to substitute the Protect America Act extension with an alternative that would not have granted telecom immunity. Third, when the vote came, (Senate roll call vote #2 for 2008), Senators Clinton and Obama did not bother to show up as they had promised they would. Why should Democrats bother supporting Obama or Clinton when they won't keep their promises to Democratic voters? Why should either Obama or Clinton be made President when they won't do the job they have now as senators? If Clinton and Obama won't act to defend our freedom from illegal government spying now, why should we believe that either one would defend our freedom as President? |
