In 2001 Wisconsin Senator Russ Feingold famously and courageously stood
up as the lone senator to vote against the Patriot Act. On July 21 he
did it again, <A href="http://www.armytimes.com/news/2009/07/military_feingoldvote_armygrowth_072209w/">casting the lone vote</A>
opposing Connecticut Senator Joe
Lieberman's amendment to the 2010 Defense Authorization bill that
immediately authorizes an expansion of the military by 30,000 troops. In
an exclusive interview with <I>The Nation</I>, Feingold says he "did not
believe it was in the best interest of our troops or our national
security." The measure passed 93-1.
