Apparently I am more jaded than I realized. I just had a feeling of profound pride and respect for the distribution of power in our country and for the House of Representatives: House votes against immunity for illegal wiretapping.

Me too.

 Then it dawned on me that if this nation has sunk so far as to even consider such legislation as opposed to taking legal action against those who conducted illegal wiretaps then there is a problem.

It would be like feeling warm and fuzzy because Congress said it's okay after all worship as you please.
