Lugar Endorses Hearings

Being a liberal, I’m no huge fan of my Republican Senator, Richard Lugar. We disagree on most things. But, especially considering that Indiana is a pretty solidly red state, I know I could do a lot worse than Lugar, and to his office’s credit, every time I have written to him, whether to ask him to please support some progressive legislation I know he never will, or to complain about some piece of conservative legislation he has supported, I have always received a nice reply, each time responding to the specific issue I addressed.

Now I see that Lugar is supporting an investigation into Bush’s spying program. Looks like I have the opportunity to write him a thank-you letter for a change.
