Alright, first of all, not it isn't.
The senate has a ton of horrible, nonsensical bills that are introduced, but they never see the light of day.
This is just linkbait and a two paragraph explanation of some obscure McCain bill that nobody will care about.
- hga 16y agoI wouldn't say it's entirely nonsensical. The Miranda-izing of the Christmas "Knicker Bomber" resulted in a loss of intelligence about what is going on in the rather hot area of Yemen, the same place where Anwar al-Awlaki is thought to be residing, who is an American citizen whom the President of the United States has ordered the "targeted killing" of (!!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anwar_al-Awlaki#Current_status http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anwar_al-Awlaki#Current_status). Nonsensical, perhaps, in that in practice the Congress can't force the Executive's hand like this, but perhaps adding a little clarity here might help in the long run.
