  • PhogHawk, on 07/10/2008, -0/+1Lawrence Lessig is such a badass, and definitely a role model for me.
  • SatoriSeeker, on 07/19/2008, -0/+1Obama used progressives who care about the constitution to get money and votes during the primary. Now that Hillary is vanquished he has shrewdly concluded we are no further use to him because the reality is that no matter how angry we are over FISA (and I'm boiling over) that we will not vote for McCain. Please let me be the first to say: Senator Obama, with all due respect, please go ***** yourself! I will take my $500 donation back and give it to the ACLU, a group that will honor their pledge to protect the constitution.
  • yenvious, on 07/10/2008, -0/+0Lessig isn't always spot-on these days, but in this case, I think he's got it. Especially in the "spineless institution that is the Senate", bit.
