Pardon My Politics

In this day and age of exit polls and data analysis it seems only fair to point out an ongoing struggle the Obama campaign has yet to overcome; so many Americans are leery of his inexperience as a United States Senator. Many will recall not too long ago, Senator Obama was merely a state representative in Illinois. He was propelled to his current office after serving many years in his home state. Like most freshman senators, Obama quickly began learning the ups and downs of national politics. He began shaking hands with prominent political leaders while memorizing the names of top lobbyists. Of course, anyone who keeps up with national level politics realizes if an individual serves in Washington for more than a week he or she will be introduced to lobbyist sharks really soon. After all it's all part of the game.

Proving the old axiom that Congress "is the best that money can buy," congressional Democrats are preparing to gut the Constitution by granting giant telecom companies retroactive immunity and liability protection on warrantless wiretapping by the Bush regime.
