96. That's what the majority fail to remember . . .
Has nothing to do with war or terrorists. Bush initiated wiretapping as soon as the court gave him the presidency . . . in 2001! The telecoms knew it was illegal but anything for MONEY. I definitely think the purpose was for political spying. I also think that many pushing for the immunity factor feel they would end up involved if it ended up in court. I know for sure one House member knew it was going on, knew it was illegal and did nothing about it. Unfortunately too many of our elected persons are more concerned with their personal gains and in this case their "skin" than the end result to our Constitution if the bill passes. :shrug:
