Possible scenario: Obama leads a filibuster against FISA. Come October, |
|
there is a terrorist attack on US soil. Bush claims it's because of the FISA filibuster. Discuss.

2. Do we really need to talk about FISA for the next three weeks too? |
|
It's irrelevant. Don't feed the concern trolls.

3. If Obama couldn't convince the electorate that Bush was FOS, he's not the silver-tongued orator |

4. Just like in 04, we'd have to talk through the media filter. Need the bully pulpit to change opinion |

5. Obama is filtered through the media |
|
It is not about his silver tongue it is about corporate control of our 4th estate.
If you do not understand this than you need to stop making comments on politics.

6. Same scenario we heard repeatedly in 2002 (and to some extent in 2004) |
|
How'd those years work out?

Wasn't this why they voted IWR? And the Patriot Act?
Have we learned nothing?
