It's official: Obama betrays America

As expected, Obama voted to give retroactive immunity to telecom companies that colluded with Bush in illegal spying.

There are some matters that are beyond compromise, and a chief executive who demands exemptions from the law is one of them. At this point, I don't know or care whether Obama or McCain is worse. Either way, we're in for four more bad years.

See Timothy Lee's comments on the bill on the Cato web site. Looks to me like Lee is right; the bill that Obama voted for is a gross betrayal of Americans' privacy, and the telecom immunity is not the worst of it.
