Re: One more thing said by mdd:The real criminals here are not the telcos, it is the agents in the government who COMPELLED them to comply with an illegal wiretapping program. Save most of your indignation for them. -R Horseshit! The Telcos had a fiduciary duty to protect their customers from the illegal, unwarranted requests and actions of the White House. It is clear that one cannot be lawfully compelled to break the law. And further, in the instance of illegal wiretapping and wholesale eavesdropping on voice telecommunications, internet traffic/e-mail and standard mail, the administration operated well beyond the constraints of the Constitution and Bill of Rights, and the authority granted the Executive thereby. In fact, they operated outside the bounds of all law in the United States of America. The Telcos, and all others, who cooperated with the megalomaniacal dementia manifested in the White House are legally liable for their actions. This point was decided at Nurhenburg. |
