Obama would support Dodd's filibuster of FISA Bill
Edited on Tue Oct-23-07 06:12 PM by jefferson_dem
From Obama spokesman, Bill Burton --

"Senator Obama has serious concerns about many provisions in this bill, especially the provision on giving retroactive immunity to the telephone companies. He is hopeful that this bill can be improved by the Senate Judiciary Committee. But if the bill comes to the Senate floor in its current form, he would support a filibuster of it."

1. what does would mean? 4 senators have signed on; Feingold, Wyden,
Dodd and Biden. Ask him to sign on to the hold/filibuster.
