    In a surprising move the ACLU sues the Obama administration over PRISM. This is the scandal the right was hoping for, that could actually bring Obama down, but I fear Americans today are too lacksidasical to push for his impeachment.

  • Oh, I don't think this is going to do anything. These are programs that Congress has been briefed on. They debated them five years ago. None of this stuff is really new. Unless they discover something beyond what's been released it's not going to end up in impeachment. People on both sides support these programs. They'd have to have been abused in some way.

    And I don't think there's anything surprising about the ACLU suing. They have a very strict reading of the 4th Amendment. Even stricter than mine!

  • To be honest fellows I'm going to have a rough time siding with the ACLU on most things.
