Jane Harman Snark

She's really, really slow to understand what is going on, but she's getting there:

So if I understand this correctly -- and I'm pretty sure I do -- when the U.S. Government eavesdropped for years on American citizens with no warrants and in violation of the law, that was both "legal and necessary," and it's the "despicable" whistle-blowers (such as Thomas Tamm) who disclosed that crime and the newspapers who reported it who should be criminally investigated, but not the lawbreaking government officials. But when the U.S. Government legally and with warrants eavesdrops on Jane Harman, that is an outrageous invasion of privacy and a violent assault on her rights as an American citizen, and full-scale investigations must be commenced immediately to get to the bottom of this abuse of power. Behold Jane Harman's overnight transformation from Lawless Surveillance State champion to shrill civil liberties extremist.
