| The Bilerico Project diarist beat me to it, but I have the excuse that I've been waiting on a statement from Erik Paulsen on the FISA bill that passed the house late last week before I posted that of Ashwin Madia, which popped into my inbox this morning.
Madia: I am troubled by the House passage of HR 6304, the FISA Amendments Act of 2008. There is much we can do to prevent terrorism, but such measures do not require the sacrifice of fundamental constitutional freedoms which our country was founded upon. This legislation demonstrates the need for leaders in Congress who have experience in the military and in Iraq, and who value the rule of law as we fight the War on Terror.
Paulsen:
As of 7:30, I'm still waiting on a statement from the Paulsen campaign, but I've been assured it's coming soon. I'll update this post with that statement as soon as it arrives.
Update: heard from the Paulsen campaign late last night after I shut down the comp, and he was unavailable all day -- hopefully that statement will come through today. |
