Today the FISA bill passed and every meaningful amendment designed to protect our civil liberties was defeated.
A Democratically-controlled Congress just aided in the cover-up of at least 30 federal crimes committed by George Bush and Dick Cheney.
As an added bonus, we no longer have a meaningful 4th Amendment to the Constitution or any protection against government intrusion into our “private” communications:
UPDATE:
The ACLU and the Electronic Frontier Foundation vow to challenge the FISA bill on the basis that it is an unconstitutional violation of the 4th Amendment and that it further usurps the Judicial branch of government.
Good luck.
