Erroneous AP Story
by Senator Russ Feingold

Thu Feb 16, 2006 at 10:51:25 AM PDT
There was an erroneous AP story that many of you may have seen online and in your newspapers this morning that reads: "Feingold gives up Patriot Act effort." Nothing could be further from the truth. As you can see here, I haven't given up anything. The story was wrong and I wanted to be sure everyone knew about it.

I will continue this fight - it's a fight worth having - and it's not over.

4. I'm more and more proud to call him a US Senator every day.

My friends across the big lake are very fortunate to have him in the Senate.

6. give up on patriot, give up on nsa.... seeing a pattern

i wasnt hearing dems accepting nsa, but i was hearing rumor dems were accepting nsa

a new approach by media and bushco. like with alito, no opposition. no filibuster. even though we watched the dems building a filibuster fight.

say it to make it true?

interesting

7. that does appear to be a strategy....

8. I watched Senator Feingold on the floor of the Senate this a.m.

He was arguing to vote no on cloture because the patriot act has not been fixed and because he was not allowed to enter an amendment to the bill. He really is doing a wonderful job for America. I wish more had his courage, wisdom, and integrity.

9. Where the hell is everyone?

Why aren't they backing him?

Fucking losers. They aren't Americans They are IMPOSTERS posing as Americans. How else can you explain the lack of concern for our Constitution and our Civil Liberties?

Peace.
