I agree with some of it, such as restoring oversight, transparency, and FISA. I like the idea of turning our government back inward to take care of US citizens first and foremost and giving power back into the Constitution where it belongs. But the level of involvement of citizens has to raise to a level where "involvement" in the political process is more than watching The Daily Show and then blogging about it (or much less action, as is the norm).
I agree with Bryce; some of it was good, especially on the topics of oversight, transparency, and the like. I am not comfortable with a strict isolationist position, nor do I think the complete renunciation of torture is needed or astute. I am in the distinct minority, though, as I am included in the dwindling percentage of people who approve of G.W. and the job he is doing.
