Obama on the FISA Bill

He says:

This was not an easy call for me. I know that the FISA bill that passed the House is far from perfect. I wouldn't have drafted the legislation like this, and it does not resolve all of the concerns that we have about President Bush's abuse of executive power.

Simple solution. Draft legislation that would resolve the concerns you have.
