OT - Mister Ojangles Hedging Bet on FISA Vote

The Constitution was given one last burning by the Dumbo-led House
yesterday:

And now it goes to the Senate. Barack Obama, back during the days when
he needed the support of progressives and libertarians, voted against
amnesty for the Telecoms. But now, when he needs the support of the
Military-Corporate-Intelligence state, Obama and his staff are
refusing to announce where he stands on this. They refuse to say if he
will travel back to Washington for the vote, or how he will vote.

Obviously, this dude is waiting to see if his vote will matter or not.
If the pattern of the last couple months holds, he will vote against
amnesty for show, and will be absent if it matters.
