Hey, you, Senator Dickhead...

I didn't vote for you, Mr. Webb, so that you could continue to pull the same shit the republicans were already doing to piss me off.

Won't happen again.

Asshole.

Voted to give the telcos immunity for helping the NSA illegally wiretap US Citizens.

What the fuck.

As did every Republican and sufficient Democrats to make filibustering a no-go.

Obama voted against. Went out of his way to, at that. Hilary abstained.

Yeah, but I had high hopes for Webb.

Thankfully, the Senior Senator from IL also voted NAY.

Hilary abstained.

Didn't she co-sponsor that too?

Maybe she knew it was a lost cause and thus decided to save herself the plane ride.

The Bill overall was a loss, and voting on it made no difference. In fact, neither Obama nor Clinton voted on it, but the specific amendment in question needed 60 nay votes to fail inclusion, and it lacked only 3. Obama voted on that.

She's a little busy trying to save her campaign. She didn't actually abstain, she was NP -- not present.
