weren't they working for Cheney at the time?

But OMG - since she is on the Senate Intelligence Committee and it was her computer being searched "Now we she the Outrage"

What a piece of work

And we have seen her defend the CIA and Bush torture policies countless times

At the age of 80, Feinstein is the oldest currently serving United States Senator.

She is truly a member of the 1% In 1980, Feinstein married Richard C. Blum, an investment banker. In 2003, Feinstein was ranked the fifth-wealthiest senator, with an estimated net worth of $26 million. By 2005 her net worth had increased to between $43 million and $99 million.Her 347-page financial-disclosure statement – characterized by the San Francisco Chronicle as "nearly the size of a phone book" – draws clear lines between her assets and those of her husband, with many of her assets in blind trusts.

The party needed a younger more progressive voice in CA. Sadly that did not happen in 2012

Yes you are Correct

other than personal staff, you shouldn't blame VP Biden only.

bad habit to blame anyone for anything
when I don't even know what I'm talking about.
trying to quit.

and the Kochs for every environmental mess.

You helped to create this Monster, Ms. Feinstein. Deal with it.

warned against, and she told us to fuck off, it would never happen.

I know! Duh. You gave them the POWER !!! Why did you not ever think that that POWER would be abused, eventually! Duh!


edit: grammar for clarity.

flips the finger.

"... I have grave concerns that the CIA search may have ... violated the separation of powers principles embodied in the United States Constitution." then perhaps you should have Mr. Brennan charged and let the third branch of the government decide.

While you are at it, see what you can do about that Clapper guy.

How do like that plate now that YOU are eating it, Senator? Eat it ALL up, every damn bite.

Remember?

It apparently applies to only 100 people

There is a large network within the CIA that doesn't report to the Oval Office, Senate or Congress. They are the operational core of BushInc. No Democratic president will ever accrue the power that would be needed to break it.

It's been that way since the late 70s.

The Fisa Improvements Act, promoted by Dianne Feinstein, the California Democrat who chairs the Senate intelligence committee, would both make permanent a loophole permitting the NSA to search for Americans’ identifying information without a warrant – and, civil libertarians fear, contains an ambiguity that might allow the FBI, the DEA and other law enforcement agencies to do the same thing.

“For the first time, the statute would explicitly allow the government to proactively search through the NSA data troves of information without a warrant,” said Michelle Richardson, the surveillance lobbyist for the ACLU.

“It may also expand current practices by allowing law enforcement to directly access US person information that was nominally collected for foreign intelligence purposes. This fourth amendment back door needs to be closed, not written into stone.”

You think you are more special than the people you supposedly represent? I guess for real outrage we will have to wait until the spying on AIPAC comes out.

Monster, Doctor Frankenstein.

Because all of these programs are legal....well, because the secret people say it is.

which IMO are actually rather informative on the topic of the ongoing CIA torture coverup
