ACTION: Thank CT House Dems For FISA Vote

As DavidNYC noted in his Orange-to-Blue endorsement post of Jim Himes yesterday, Chris Shays has a history of pretending to be a "moderate" while voting again and again for Bush's policies.

This morning, Shays joined many in both parties in Congress by standing with Bush again on the FISA "compromise".

In fact, Chris Shays has been busy doing his best impersonation of a Blue Dog all week, voting for the war supplemental without timelines that passed yesterday before voting for the for the disastrous FISA bill that passed today.

(Here was Jim Himes's statement in opposition to the FISA "compromise" yesterday.)

Thankfully, Connecticut has four out of five Democrats in our House delegation, and all four - John Larson, Rosa DeLauro, Joe Courtney, and Chris Murphy - stood up and voted against both the war supplemental and against retroactive immunity for telecommunications companies included in the FISA bill.

Let's show them that we have their backs. Send a thank you note to all four CT Dems for their vote today here:

And then help make it 5 out of 5 on these types of votes come next January by electing Jim Himes!
