I think it's pretty clear, given who knew and who didn't know, that DiFi is not seen as one of the good guys.  DiFi wants someone who is as tainted as she is by the illegal programs.  This talk about wanting a professional spook at CIA is horseshit, especially considering the people she's voted to confirm.

Now read this.  Our friends at the ACLU have been busy.  And then Greenwald's post on the OLC appointment.

Shame she's the Intelligence Committee Chair then.

I seriously doubt the ALCU thing will come to anything. I simply no longer believe there is any will in DC to hold the Bushies accountable for what they have done. There was too much cross-party collusion, complicity and yes... agreement.

An awful lot of Beltway Democrats have demonstrated time and again that they believe, in their heart of hearts, that what the Bushes did was not just legal, but justified. They bought the GWoT, all of it up to and including Padilla and Guantanamo, just as surely as Fox did. That's why they have failed, again and again to defend the Constitution, to maintain their credibility, to protect Americans from an overbearing Executive drunk on its self-elevation above the law. they stopped being an opposition and became cheerleaders and still think they were right to do so, the status quo bush created is that which they now defend, little realising how much they have sold out.

I think most reptilians would take offense at being compared with Harry Reid.

Possibly.  I used to have a comprehensive list.  Not sure if Reid was on it - but he should be.
