Great, just great. We know that this only protects Shrub.

Blitzer has, of course, bought the Administration spin. (that they'll only get cooperation if they get immunity). And Reyes agrees. Why won't anyone say "The telecoms don't give a damn about immunity, and ex post facto laws are unconstitutional anyway."

Ridiculous. Caving Dems, once again.

4. Reyes doesn't mention telecoms now have immunity. He's trying to sell us
by saying ,"Oh, well the senate had info we didn't have, so now we think we will agree with the senate." They've always had all the documents and information the senate had. How did this guy ever get to be a representative... oh yeah...Texas. We are witnessing the end of equal Justice in America...what Comey and Ashcroft were willing to resign over...unlimited spying on Americans without oversight, warrants, or accountability. The police state is here.

5. I e-mailed my congressman to explain why it is not enough
for Bush to tell Congress what he is doing. We need to know just how much our privacy has been invaded. We need the truth on this. I will not vote for a senator or congressman who supports a compromise that keeps Americans in the dark about this issue or that compromises my Constitutional rights. This is one of the most important issues out there.
