Today the Senate voted to grant retroactive immunity to telecomm companies that had previously broken the law as they cooperated with administration demands related to the its illegal and unconstitutional warrantless wiretapping program. This was without a doubt one of the most important votes the Senate will hold this year.
Let's take a look at how all three presidential candidates voted, shall we?
Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) voted in favor of retroactive immunity. What a staunch maverick defender of the constitution!
Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) voted against it. Well done, sir.
Sen. Hillary Clinton? Despite the fact that she began the morning in Northern Virginia, she didn't bother to show up.
