Do we let the Republicans Continue To Usurp?

Its interesting, just a few days ago I mentioned a position I had several years ago regarding pushing for very strong Identity Theft laws.

Today this is a focus subject on "The News Hour with Jim Lehrer"

Democrats could be standing up for the protection of our identities - and they could tie it to much harsher laws with a prudent financial reduction in victimless crime sentencing - as well as a one time release of some of the current inmates.
Bingo - they would be in the news - looking as strong vanguards for meaningful prosecution and they could tie it to something the Republicans would not like or support - though enough republicans will jump the fence to befuddle the rightists.
OR?

Will they give it to the Republicans - let them once again become the protectors of our free America and Americans in general? Almost assuredly they will pass the baton of opportunity.

Write your friends that are walking upright! Don't waste it on the squids.
