The Ever-Malleable Mr. Obama
	
By Charles Krauthammer
Friday, June 27, 2008; Page A17

"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.
