Hillary on FISA
Edited on Wed Oct-24-07 09:24 AM by spotbird
She made a statement. She will support Dodd's filibuster, maybe, unless she gets information that causes her not to support it.

Q: Can you discuss your position on the reauthorization of the FISA bill?

HRC: I am troubled by the concerns that have been raised by the recent legislation reported out of the Intelligence Committee. I haven't seen it so I can't express an opinion about it. But I don't trust the Bush Administration with our civil rights and liberties. So I'm going to study it very hard. As matters stand now, I could not support it and I would support a filibuster absent additional information coming forward that would convince me differently.

Got that? The good news is that unlike her Iraq vote, this time she plans to study the issue before she decides.

7. either those polls are a fraud like her
or we have a lot of stupid americans. Considering how much money and backing she is getting from the corporate controlled media I suspect the poll numbers are pumped up like they did for the chimp.
