Are some of them finally getting past the "stockholm syndrome". Maybe not but if one has finally grown a set hopefully others will follow.http://rawstory.com/news/2007/Dodd_ready_to_mount_filibuster_to_1217.html
And before all you neo's come screaming "they were helping protect our country and should be immune". Tough. Our LAWS are what seperates us from facism, or a variety of other government variations that are not American democracy. They are big companies with lots of lawyers to say "hey this is illeagal, we cant do this WITHOUT A COURT ORDER". Its not partisan, its illeagal. Return our laws and our Constitution one step at a time,but return em!

BST GW is not hiding behind laws his simply goes through them, then when he is caught he claims it is for our protection so we must need a new one. He got the patriot act.he broke FISA so now wants a new one. Remind your congressman of our laws.
TommyG The voters did not putt those two in thier positions. They only voted them into thier respective branches. I do agree they need to grow a backbone. We will see in 08. And liberal Iran? Are you kidding me?! Grab a dictionary.

There are a lot of good Democrats out there.. However, the radicals are the ones that the left is listening to. I think that some of the politicians are waking up and realizing their base is more conservative than they care to realize.
Look at the last election, on the dem ticket most of the Dems who beat Repubs are conservative Democrats. Far left wingers are getting pulled from their seats right and left, the sad part is, you have people like Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi that you put in the positions of power who are far left, it makes the whole party looks bad. The Dems need to get party leaders who have some actual common sense and wake up to the fact the world is not all rainbows and butterflies. There are people out there that REALLY DO want all Americans dead, especially the liberal ones (IRAN).

It could be that the web of secrecy, deception, and indifference to the voice of mainstream Americans is beginning to unravel.
But until the impeachment of Cheney is moved through the investigative process and to the floor of the House, I will not believe that they have finally "grown a set."

Now, if only Repubs would wake up and stop putting oil hungry war mongers up for presidential election, we'd be all set.
Our laws are also what people like BUSH are using to hide behind in order to invade our privacy and do whatever they damn well please.
