Sen. Wayne Allard staffer says Dems will have "terrorists be able to sue phone companies"
How low will these guys like Senator Wayne Allard, and his flunky Sean Conway, go to advance the politics of fear?
FISA did not expire, you incompetent lying Senate Staffer Sean Conway. He continues to go off the rails on KFKA:OLIVER: What can we expect; what's on the agenda for next week?
CONWAY: Well, I think top priority is FISA reauthorization. I just cannot believe the House Democrats allowed FISA to expire last Saturday. I mean, we're a country at war. The idea that this is not a valuable tool that has helped prevent terrorist attacks in this country, legislation that was passed by overwhelming bipartisan -- almost 70 percent of the Senate voted for this, 69 votes. And the House has just simply said, "We're not going to accept this, because we want to have, you know, terrorists be able to sue phone companies if they're listening to our conversations." It's insane.
OLIVER: Yeah --
"Dems better hope", because George Bush is absolutely helpless in getting warrants for spying. He only has the NSA, Justice Department, and FBI working for him. And overseas, where most likely no warrant is needed, he has the CIA and DIA.CONWAY: I mean, I don't know about you, but if I'm a Democrat out there, you'd best, better hope that something does not happen in this country while this bill lapses. Because I guarantee, we're not allowing the NSA and our folks who are given the responsibility to protect us, and protect our homeland security, the opportunity to do the best job they can.
It is truly disgusting that lies and fear are the only things Republicans have to endorse their leadership. They have failed in Iraq and Afghanistan, they haven't implemented the 9/11 Commission findings, they aren't protecting our ports, the VISA system is totally screwed up, they are inflaming our enemies overseas, and the only thing these cowards do is instill false fear into our citizens.
Just for the incredible cowardice and absolute inability to lead they should be put out of office. It looks like that day is coming - none too soon for me.
