Over at Washington Monthly, guest blogger dday calls on Barack Obama to denounce, or whatever, House Intelligence Committee Chairman Silvestre Reyes’ “conversion” to supporting including telecom immunity in a renewal of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act.
(Sidebar: As I blogged earlier, WTF led Reyes to be so fine NOW with telco immunity, when he made himself into a progressive hero this spring?)
Anyway, if the eventual House bill needs any reconciliation with the Senate version, Obama has his chance …
To filibuster.
(Assuming that 41 Dems don’t have enough real patriotism to invoke cloture in the first place.)
