What's the Difference?
Democrats are once again showing why they're just like the Republicans- only worse. Instead of focusing on key 9/11 Commission suggestions, (you know, the thing they promised to do), they are going to spend the opening days of the 110th Congress making sure that we're never wiretapped again. Awesome.
It's important to note that if the FBI, CIA, and NSA were reorganized, so many other Democratic goals could be reached. Better intelligence would have led the country in a direction other than a war in Iraq, prevented an attack on American soil, and would eventually lead to expanded nuclear non-proliferation. But I guess wiretapping concerns top all of those.
