Keep It Up House Dems!

Misc

I love them showing back bone. The White House doesn’t know how to take it. It also looks like they aren’t going to blink on telecom immunity: In continued defiance of the White House, House Democratic leaders are readying a proposal that would reject giving legal protection to the phone companies that helped in the […]

40 Minutes Until FISA Expires!

Misc

I guess the world will be ending. The government can’t listen to al Qaeda on the phone, which means they will launch a massive Ma’ Bell attack in a few short minutes. We will wake up in a new world full of chaos and mayhem. Here is our signing off song: But wait! Isn’t this […]

Misc

And here is the very reason that I hate cell phones: Federal officials are routinely asking courts to order cellphone companies to furnish real-time tracking data so they can pinpoint the whereabouts of drug traffickers, fugitives and other criminal suspects, according to judges and industry lawyers.

VIDEO: Al Qaeda Forgets

Misc

When your defense is one that is weak then the transparency of that defense becomes nonexistent. This is shown in great detail during today’s hearings when this little exchange occurred: BIDEN: Thank you very much. General, how has this revelation damaged the program? I’m almost confused by it but, I mean, it seems to presuppose […]

Specter's Questioning Of Gonzalez

Misc

Specter just asked Gonzalez if when they do go to the FISA court for a warrant if they disclose that their information for the warrant was obtained by warrantless taps.
