Via the legislation, here is the special gift that members of Congress are giving themselves:

Requirement: The Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation shall promptly notify appropriate congressional leadership of any query conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation using a query term that is reasonably believed to be the name or other personally identifying information of a member of Congress, and shall also notify the member who is the subject of such query.

“Republicans” who voted for H.R. 7888 were: Barrasso, Boozman, Britt, Budd, Cassidy, Collins, Cornyn, Cotton, Crapo, Ernst, Fischer, Graham, Grassley, Hyde-Smith, Kennedy, Lankford, McConnell, Moran, Mullin, Murkowski, Ricketts, Risch, Romney, Rounds, Rubio, Sullivan, Thune, Tillis, Wicker, and Young.

Before the final vote, the Senate defeated six amendments attempting to expand civil liberties in the process. This included an amendment offered by Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL) requiring the federal government to obtain a warrant from the FISA Court before spying on Americans’ private communications, which failed 42-50.

Because he's a G'damned RINO!

The only time he acts remotely conservative is when he is campaigning.

That and he makes brisket in a freaking oven instead of a smoker!  Danged Communist!

Semper Fi

FISA betrayal is the last straw for me. I will NEVER vote for that clown again. A Warrant is required !

Either someone runs against him or I don't vote.  He's the reason we have the latest round of illegal ATF 'regulations'.  I'm done with that guy.

Been trying for awhile now but nobody will run against him.

Even the Democrats do not run a competent person against him.

edited to re-word.

So it was not till this week you were against him? You were OK with all that gun control, govt bailouts (2008), and billons in foreign assistance for decades now? Reality is Congressional exemption from FISA will have no effect on any of our live. But all the other shit Cornyn voted has an effect every single day.

Irony not lost that someone who has voted for him every single time is now lecturing the rest of us not to vote him.

Welcome aboard, better late than never. Please also check how your local House rep voted too.

Both of these comments are what's the problem with modern politics. When you reduce someone to a letter next to their name it becomes a sports game, and is that really how you want to treat the people representing you?

Both these arguments have the same sound:


Anyone who says "a vote for anyone but an R is a wasted vote" is an uneducated voter, and an uneducated vote is far worse than a wasted vote.

I will not vote for him again. Hopefully by the time rolls around for his next election he either gets primary out or retires.
Cornyn and Crenshaw need to go.
