This administration is by the corporation, for the corporation and of the corporation. There are very few decisions made by this white house that don't take into account the desires of corporate America. |

Some conflict of interest seems to be surfacing between the people and the administrations colluding with corporations.
Looks like a very tough fight. I dont care if they want to spy on me, go right ahead if it will save some lives.
But they need to do it legally with some oversight.
There are too many ways to exploit and abuse this power to let it happen without careful attention.

the immunity is pretty much dead now as 2008 is an election year. Anything that will make politicians look bad will not get passed.

|  »Effort To Scuttle Telecom Immunity Push Fails?? - not yet
This one attempt failed. But this is only the beginning of the fight to get immunity for the telcos. The House didn't pass a FISA bill with immunity in it. And the Senate still has to consider a competing bill and amendments before the Senate can pass a FISA bill with immunity. And even then, if the Senate ultimately passes immunity it has to go to a Senate/House joint committee for negotiations and then be passed again by both House and Senate. And this all has to happen before February, when the FISA authorization has to renewed or be sunsetted.
So a lot of people are getting their panties in a knot prematurely. There is still a long way to go before this issue is settled.
