Sen. Feinstein has her Intelligence Committee mojo up-and-running!

Sen. Dianne Feinstein ... wrote to Defense Secretary Robert Gates on Wednesday to urge him to look into the improper concealment of the permanent placement of two former Bushies within the Department of Defense.

This is a terrific opportunity for us to thank our senior US Senator for working to prevent the burrowing of Bush appointees into permanent career positions where they would be involved in sensitive political debates over Gitmo. It almost, but not quite, makes up for her Aug. 2007 vote to support the FISA bill that undid the warrantless surveillance restrictions placed on our executive branch and its political appointees, and that disallows America from prosecuting the Bush administration for its retroactive breaking of this federal law.

Send her a thank-you note! Links to send an e-mail to Dianne Feinstein on the right-hand side of this page. I sent her a note, and it only took me 30 seconds!
