Still a bad presedent to set. Letting this pass even for the last six months of teh Jr. Administration is too dangerous, and we run the risk that a president AFTER Obama might opt for the Jr. approach just because this bill passed.

No, not an option. Either Obama opposes this bill [if it still contains the telecom immunity provision] or he's not serious about protecting the 4th and 5th amendments.

In my opinion he'll do that, but I can't be sure until he does.
