Just saw this on CNN. Looks like Snowe and Hagel caved! The compromise "Sell Out" creates a new subcommittee to oversee the NSA domestic spying. The NSA program must be approved every 45 days by the new subcommittee and there is a five year sunset clause to make the whole program go away. This is what we got instead of an investigation, instead of holding this criminal administration accountable for their crimes.
The problem once again is that everyone is focusing on the program and not on what this admisistration has done. They knowingly broke the law. The ignored the law and claimed power to be above the law. This is what is being ignored.
With the crack down on whistleblowers and the press, their full court pressure of Congress to give up their rights, this latest congressional betrayal of the american people, how can we stop this criminal administration and protect our rights and liberties?
I'm tired of having to try to influence republicans like Snowe, Hagal, McCain, Collins and Chaffee. When will Reid and the democrats go on the offensive.
It's time to shut the place down! Remember all the talk, the democrat "bluff" that they would slow everything down to a crawl if the "nuclear option" was triggered. Well, as far as I'm concerned, with this sell out on the Intelligencge Committee the "nuclear option" has been triggered and it's time to shut it down.
If nothing else, it would slow down this slide down the hell the administration and the republican congress is determined to take the country.
Shut 'em down.
