excellent post professor! (none / 0)
I like that it has very specific predictions.  It will be both fun and excruciating if one of those scenarios plays out, but I don't doubt that you might be right.  Agree about Petraeus, and about Obama's behavior after Move On's Betrayus ad and also defending McCain's service in the face of Wes Clark's comments.  I think I got more peeved by those two instances than his vote on FISA.

Nothing was worse than FISA and telecom immunity. In fact, you just ruined my night by mentioning it... I'm off to mutter expletives and fantasize about criminal trials for everyone involved in the most un-American government policy of my lifetime.

FISA will be changed (none / 0)
I'm sure all the Patriot Act shit will be reassessed.  If I didn't think so, I would be pissed too, but I really think so.  I hope so anyway, and that's why I said it.

That was a half-facetious comment (none / 0)
Since I know you're on the right side and feel me on FISA, desertpear. But you've probably figured that's my personal 'third rail' and I pretty much flip out on the topic anytime it comes up.

I think my personal one is selling out the planet, but Obama hasn't been thoroughly tested on that yet.
