Please come and join the effort, post a letter to Mr. Obama in the group blog explaining your feelings on his dramatic and inexplicable reversal of position.
Hey look, we know it's a long shot, but Mr. Obama has claimed that he would have had the judgement and moral certitude to vote against authorizing force in Iraq. We see this as just such a moment, and he is not showing the leadership he promised, when he said he would filibuster any bill with telecom immunity, which is arguably the LEAST dangerous thing in this bill. The outright evisceration of the 4th amendment is another.
If you're interested in assisting this effort, you can find the group here: http://my.barackobama.com/page/group/SenatorObama-PleaseVoteAgainstFISA
Ask Senator Obama to make a principled stand NOW, while it still matters.
