Here are a few comments from people who've donated to support Chris Dodd's clear leadership in defense of the Constitution -- placing a hold on a bad FISA bill and promising to filibuster if the hold fails to keep legislation containing retroactive immunity for telecom companies who acted illegally off the floor of the Senate.
Bruce from Iowa City, Iowa writes:
By placing a hold on that shameless telecom bill, Dodd just catapulted himself to the head of the Democratic pack. I wasn't sure who was going to get my vote at the Iowa caucus but now I am.
Donna from Memphis, Tennessee says:
Thank you for standing up for the US Constitution and my rights as a citizen.
Paul in Santa Barbara, California writes:
You have moved to the front of the pack in my book. Thank you for setting an example for the rest of the reticent Democratic senators and representatives. You are showing precisely the strength that is needed to get things done. We must not cave to threats or expediency, nor can we avoid the awesome responsibility we have to our children. Yesterday, you earned my vote. Today you earned this small contribution. Tomorrow, you may earn my activism. Thanks so much for the hope you give us who were giving up hope.
Nicole from Seattle, Washington says:
Thank you Senator Dodd! Just when I was in despair that no one would stand up for the American citizen, you've taken action. I can't tell you how much it means to me that someone is FINALLY taking some action!
Greg from Charlotte, North Carolina thinks:
Chris Dodd should be praised for his efforts to stop this hideous FISA 'compromise'. Steps like this demonstrate Presidential character more than any amount of clever debate answers and 'gotcha' moments.
This is just a tiny taste of the hundreds and hundreds of comments that we're receiving in support of Dodd's actions yesterday and today. Keep the support coming - we greatly appreciate your words of encouragement.
