Biden Won't Comment On State Secrets Law He Once Co-Sponsored

"The Vice President's office is declining to weigh in on a bill that would restrict use of the 'state secrets privilege' by the Department of Justice, despite the fact that, as a senator, Joe Biden co-sponsored that very piece of legislation.

"'No comment on this from here,' emailed Jay Carney, the vice president's communications director, when asked for Biden's position on a bill that would limit DOJ's ability to dismiss cases against government officials involved in warrantless wiretapping on grounds that sensitive information would be publicized."

Love those comments:

"you are right, Obama promised change and he delivered, he changed into Dick Cheney."
