wadwadthenugget-Because he is a repub and they had yrs of getting their own way by hook or by crook. They often put party before country-why should they do differently now. This clown thinks that no one remembers the days of Tom Delay and his strong arms tactics where he retaliated against his own when they did not tow the party line.
The Democrats didn't mind letting this bill expire because they don't believe in protecting our country. They would rather stab our troops in the back. Durbin, Stark, Reid and all their cronies are all examples of that.

To politically grandstand to 'protest' political grandstanding. The Neocon GOP is over and they're desperately trying to cling to the power all their lies has gained them. Out of touch elitists.
One of a Japanese student studying in the US was actually targeted by the American student and later being investigated by FBI and CIA... That was the time I recognized CIA agent/ cultural anthropologist expert on China in El Camino Hospital.
She ended up becoming a political asylum seeker after being stalked by the Department of Defense people in California. I have seen the Homeland Security San Jose office is taken by some terrorists.

Thank god for Dem's or many of you here who have posted your hate for the USA would have no opinion. "Just head over to AMERICA IS AT RISK video, there you can't post a writen opinion...
I love the name calling by these who call themself Republicans or tyrants.
....
Doesn't care about our Nation or our Military.
President Bush denied an extention to stop "AMERICA IS AT RISK" so those who love President Bush tell him to at least extend it.
This is so ridiculous. If you have reason to be spying on someone, get the warrant! Spy legally! That's fine with me!
However, warrantless wiretapping is an infringement on civil liberties and is completely illegal. Those companies who were involved in this activity should not be immune to the consequences. The republicans are just making sure they keep getting those telecommunications paychecks.
If you really thing their main concern is the terrorists, you're quite mistaken..
blah blah blah.... When did republicans become exactly the opposite of what I thought they stood for? (less spending and smaller government) These people are either the sissies they claim to be or some kind of covert underhanded fascists.
How pathetic. Reminds me when I was little and the cry baby would take his ball and go home after a rediculous temper tantrum. lol "Theres no crying in baseball"
I'm all for surveillance of suspected terrorists, but what's so hard about getting a warrant? If you have probable cause, go get the warrant and do the surveillance, if not.. don't invade privacy. Why are they over-dramatizing and saying it's going to be the End of America just because they have to come up with a decent reason to spy on someone.
They are trying to get it passed, because with it, the president cannot be held accountable for crimes that is well known, but can't be proven; because the evidence is labelled "Secret", and hence cannot be used.
Get a warrant, and its with me. Without, you can't say you live in a country based on the Rule of Law.
I hope a democrat wins the white house so when the terrorists come back to attack us again they will have to sit in the oval office and explain why their party thought it was a good idea to let terrosists win. Better yet ... i hope the terrorists aim for the oval office.
How is it protecting my safety if you give immunity to lawbreakers? GWB & Repub reps are clearly lying to save their own skins & you're lying to save your telecom campaign contributions. FISA GIVES GWB the power to intercept calls immediately if there is concern. This is purely about retroactive immunity. Who grants immunity without getting testimony? No, better to say "We're babies and we're leaving!" Well, bye. Enjoy your new lobbying jobs & golf games. As GWB's mom says We're done with you.
Even if I didn't like Republicans they have a point in that the Democrat-controlled had time for Roger Clemens vs trainer day and had time to vote on contempt of congress citations. I'd consider a contempt of congress citation from likes of the leftists who run the House a badge of honor. Anyway those were going to be showtrials and gotcha-type hearings and not fair ones. The Dems really wanted to nail Karl Rove in a perjury trap. But they had no time to debate FISA.
Getback to work. These are the stupid actions that convinced me to leave the Republican party. They are disrespectful, incompetent, and honestly dangerous. Their agendas include stomping civil rights, and the right to privacy. They don't respect the first amendment, but lets see what they would do if we began to chip away at their second amendment rights, the right to bear arms.
Wow, congressional republicans actually taking a stand. How come they didn't do this when they were in the majority? Hopefully they've learned their lesson.
If we walk out on our jobs, we get fired.
