2. Turley calls it what it is: COLLUSION by the Democrats. Why, because they were in on it.

They need to protect themselves from possible prosecution as much as the Republicans. They KNEW about unlawful surveillance and torture programs. Bushco made sure that they did.

What Turley is saying here is very important.

FISA: Jonathan Turley says, Dems are protecting THEMSELVES. Hotlist

I just saw Jonathan Turley on Countdown, who concluded to Keith Olbermann that the FISA immunity compromise is happening most likely as a result of top Dems who themselves fear retribution for their complicity in Bush's illegal spying activities.

Jonathan Turley makes the point that several years ago, certain top Dems were intimidated by Bush into quietly going along with Bush's illegal spying activities, and now those same Dems are afraid that they themselves could be held liable for any illegal spying committed by Bush and the Telecomm companies (Turley used the word "collusion".)
