Dodd!

Shakes has a great post up at Comment is free:

Can you feel the Doddmentum yet? Last week, after leaders of the senate intelligence committee reportedly reached an agreement with the White House that would, via new legislation, grant immunity to the telecom companies who complied with the national security agency's warrantless spying program, Democratic presidential candidate and senator Christopher Dodd emerged as a potential leader on the issue of privacy and constitutional protections. First he swore to put a hold on the bill. Then he vowed to filibuster if Democratic leaders tried to proceed with it despite his hold.

I'm not jumping on the Dodd wagon yet, but by golly, the man is doing the right things. Good Friday morning reading ... if you're not going to work.

I, on the other hand, woke up late (the Mrs. is away on business) and I'm scrambling. Thank God it's fucking Friday.
