For an example of this, why aren't Senator Kennedy and Congresswoman Loretta Sanchez fighting to scrap the unAmerican flying blacklists when they have been personally subjected to it and know consituents are hassled routinely by them? Instead of dealing with the fundamental flaws of this blacklisting, they focus on doing piecemeal clean-up as a personal/constituent service for an individual rather than addressing the flawed systems themselves.
They don't even run their mouths on the issue. Why not? Words aren't expensive, and speaking up is the least they can do. Being in the minority is no excuse for remaining silent on these issues, for ignoring the fundamental flaws of this regime.
