Strange Bedfellows

By Libby

Me I'm just feeling strange today. I suddenly got hit with a migraine headache last night and woke up with it. I've been a nauseous mess all day but it's finally starting to subside to the point where I can at least drink some juice. Meanwhile, I've been poking around the internets and managed to pull myself together enough to join the Strange Bedfellows today.

This is the coalition that formed to fight the FISA cave-in and is part of a larger effort. You can join as a sponsor at this link. They've already been running ads. Glenn has a pdf of the latest one that ran today in the front section of the WaPo. He also tells us the vote has been postponed until tomorrow and there's a new amendment on the table. "The Bingaman Amendment would merely postpone the granting of telecom immunity until 90 days after Congress receives the Inspector General's audits of the President's NSA spying program which the new FISA bill mandates, and would freeze the telecom lawsuits in place until then." You might want to contact your senseless Senators and urge them to at least vote for that one.

They'll probably ignore it but at least they'll know we're watching. As always, Jane has more on this and the upcoming money bomb for August 8th. Do what you can.
