Marks of a True Patriot

"
I will do everything I can, including a filibuster, to stop this Patriot Act conference report, which does not include adequate safeguards to protect our constitutional freedoms,'' said Sen. Russ Feingold, D-Wis., who was the only senator to vote against the original version of the Patriot Act.

To restore legitimacy to the Democratic Party, I encourage people to take a good look at Russ Feingold. He co-sponsored the BCRA with John McCain for campaign finance reform and he was the only senator to vote against the Patriot Act and the War in Iraq. To preserve the legislative branch, which is under a severe attack from "radi-cons", we need men of courage. They are rare in Congress. Feingold stands out as such a man.
