WTF is Hillary thinking???

Barack Obama voted against the USA PATRIOT act and he also voted against the war in Iraq. That alone is enough to get my vote.

In all fairness Barack was not a senator when the Patriot Act and the Authorization to go into Iraq was presented to the senate, he was a part of the filibuster that blocked reauthorization of the Patriot Act.

Dennis Kucinich was the only presidential candidate to vote against the original Patriot Act, Obama was still in the Illinois state senate at the time. He opposed the Iraq war and the Patriot Act.

Yeah, that was what I had meant to say, that he voted against re-authorizing the Patriot Act.

Obama also introduced the Iraq War de-escalation act, so while he may have not voted on the original resolution he has voted consistently on subsequent anti-war legislation.

Kucinich was my first choice... but he was too far left to have had any real chance.
