69. We agree but we don't agree
I agree with everything you said about the importance and sanctity of habeas corpus. As a lawyer I value the Consitution above all else.

I don't agree with Menendez vote and wish he had voted no (along with Lautenberg who I assume voted yes to give Menendez political cover). But I understand why he did it - to get elected so that Democrats can do (and undo) the things they and their constituents would like done for our country.

To me the most important thing, the big picture, is to get Republicans out of power. Then, after Dems take over, if they don't undo the atrocities of the Bush regime I'll be right next to you protesting them.
