The Ever-Malleable Mr. Obama

By Charles Krauthammer

"To be clear: Barack will support a filibuster of any bill that
includes retroactive immunity for telecommunications companies."

-- Obama spokesman Bill Burton, Oct. 24, 2007

That was then: Democratic primaries to be won, netroot lefties to be
seduced. With all that (and Hillary Clinton) out of the way, Obama now
says he'll vote in favor of the new FISA bill that gives the telecom
companies blanket immunity for post-Sept. 11 eavesdropping.
