this kind of crap is galling. Ms. Lee was not against protecting americans from terrorism -- both foreign and domestic. she was against the garbage everyone in the congress was voting for uncritically, which had nothing to do with a war on terrorism but is a war on human rights and freedoms. i hate the way media shills spin a story.

this kind of "journalism" is crap du jour. sadly, it's everywhere.

ms lee is incredible. standing alone against the entire congress and power elite. this takes enormous character and integrity. something mass media "journalists" don't know the vaguest thing about. and neither do most americans.

also, 9/11 seems to have resurrected the crap career of giuliani the way the deaths of harvey milk and SF mayor musconi resurrected the dead career of failed SF politician diane feinstein a few years back. what a mess.
