Keeping the Faith
I was disappointed by BHO's statement about the FISA compromise. I am hanging on to the hope that he means what he says about removing retroactive immunity for the telcos, and that the stupid bill dies in the Senate. Given Reid's track record, I am not hopeful.
But I am Keeping the Faith. I posted a message to the Obama campaign explaining my disappointment, but I am not jumping off of the bandwagon.
We need Obama to win in November. He needs our support. I'm going to keep donating to the campaign and talking up the need to get off the one-way trip to fascism and international ridicule that the Chimpanzee in Chief has got us on.
In the end, I believe that Obama knows that his strength comes from the netroots. I also know that 100% agreement about tactics and strategy between me and the campaign are not likely. But I'll take 90%. I've got -100% with the current guys.
