Obama Administration Asks Supreme Court to Dismiss ACLU Challenge to Warrantless Wiretapping Law!

“The FISA Amendments Act is the most sweeping surveillance statute ever enacted by Congress. It allows dragnet surveillance of Americans’ international communications with none of the safeguards that the Constitution requires. This kind of law should not be shielded from judicial scrutiny,”

Democrats are way better on contraception,
but what about FISA?
or Habeus Corpus?
or the military industrial complex?

All the big anti-freedom/anti-constitutional planks that hold up the Republican party have become Democratic planks as well.
It is now about elections to determine the social issues only, the rest appears to be agreed upon between the parties already going in, including unfortunately many of the supply side voodoo economics policies that the third way and the GOP agree upon.

Even outsourcing jobs via "free" trade deals have become an agreed upon effort by both parties.

There are many differences between the parties, but far less than there used to be.

What concerns me the most are these relentless bi-partisan attacks on the constitution.
Soon we will be free in name only, in many ways we are already there.
