   I just signed, but don’t think it will do a hill of beans. The dem’s don’t care one bit of American’s security, just stuffing their pockets with lawyers money.

   Of course they don’t care about the US - these ‘people’ are looking out for number one, that has always been their priority.

   I signed, too. For all of the good it’ll do.
   But, remember, these are the same Dem’s who want to grant enemy combantants acess to our courts (so does Juan McShame). They think President needs a warrant to listen in on terrorist phone calls.
   But our troops kill people in cold blood and terrorize women and children in the dark of night.

    #1…ahem….there’s a whole lot of money stuffing going on, rather indiscriminately I might add, by both dems and repubs. Go to DC and visit with the representatives, as I’ve done, and you can smell the lawyerly odors everywhere.

    Then, when you get back to your own community, visit your local court house and the same odors are palpably detectable. What happens in DC is felt everywhere throughout the US sans a terrorist assault.

    I am really tired of Americans. 40 years ago you told us military guys not to come home because we were unwanted murderers, etc. I should have listened. I have now watched this country go to the liberal dogs. I hope the terroists pop a nuke right here in downtown Minneapolis so I can watch it from the office window. It would be poetic justice here in the Peoples Republic of Minnesota. America has become just another third world country, just richer (for now).

    I blame Bush (there’s a surprise!). He vetoed a FISA bill because it did not give retroactive immunity for possible criminal activity. He basically said: “I refuse to protect America unless you allow certain illegal activities.”

    You call it courage, I call it blackmail. He wants to enforce the law but refuses to follow the law.

    I just signed for what good it will do in getting Queen Pelosi off her dead backside to do something to protect the citizens of this country. They have been playing two commercials on talk radio in the Phoenix area one urging people to contact the local Congress critter to vote for it and one from the ACLU that makes my blood boil every time I hear it. I wonder who will sue the ACLU and House Democrats when the next mass casualty attack swings into motion during this intentional blinding of our intelligence capabilities.

He basically said: “I refuse to go along with this sham effort to protect America while leaving companies exposed to overzealous legal action.”

    I call that courage, some people might call it blackmail. He wants to sign into law a document with real teeth.

    It’ll take an electoral catastrophe to wrestle HRH Pelosi out of the Speaker’s Throne.

    Why the President didn’t call a special session and pull all these lying crapweasels back to DC to TCB is beyond me.

    Lgm, the idiot, is regurgitating the same post from last time.

    Three more time (as it take at least three time to get past the rocks).

    Not one case of “illegal activity” has been brought forth.

    Not one case of “illegal activity” has been brought forth.

    This “illegal activity” is just a dodge and you are just blowing smoke. If the communications companies are not give immunity, the lawyers will have a field day.

    But you don’t care much about facts do you?

    Please, lgm, shut me up and produce one case of “illegal activity”.

    I certainly agree with the sentiment, but I can’t help but be a little suspicious of how NRCC might benefit from this.

    What chances would there be that they might use the resulting information list for NRCC solicitation or a related purpose?

    Michelle, has this been vetted to not cause this kind of unsolicited future attention?

    Okay, for people who just don’t get it. No immunity will get you:

    *****Cue commercial*****

    Have you received an unsolicited email from another country? Have you received a phone call and you didn’t know who the caller was? Have you ever made an international phone call or sent an email to another country? Have you ever called:

    Walmart, a bakery, a company that sells fertilizer, a pharmacy, a gas station or a convenience store?

    Have you ever bought a firearm?

    Have you ever bought anything from eBay?

    If you have, you may be entitled to damages. Call As_hat, Butthead, Dewy, Cheatham and Howe Attorneys at law at 1-800-mymoney for your free consultation. We are keeping you safe for unwarranted wiretaps.

    Then, say goodbye to your free minutes and long distance first. After that, watch your long distance bill go through the roof. Internet access? Doubles in cost overnight. The costs for every frivolous complaint will have to be absorbed by someone and it will be the consumer that suffers. Think health insurance.

    As former federal prosecutor Andy McCarthy stated, since Pelosi let the Protect Amercia Act expire, we need probable cause to spy on terrorists:

    Under FISA, emergency monitoring may begin only after the Attorney General himself determines that (a) “an emergency situation exists” requiring the commencement of surveillance “before an order authorizing such surveillance can with due diligence be obtained,” and (b) all the factual requirements for a judicial FISA order exist (i.e., there is probable cause that the target is an agent of a foreign power, there are no alternative investigative means by which the same information can be obtained, and all the necessary officials have given the required certifications). That can take a lot of time — the Attorney General of the United States is not out on the battlefield in Iraq, and a lot of other people in the varying chains of command have to sign off before between the time a Marine in the field realizes there’s an emergency and the presentation of the emergency to the AG.

    Everyone who has a Democratic congressman should write their congressman and ask how much the trial lawyers paid for their vote to scuttle FISA.

    Judas received 30 pieces of silver. The trial lawyers probably paid a lot less for the congressman’s vote.

    Here’s how much my congressman cares about my opinion:

    Dear Friend:
    Thank you for contacting me on an issue of importance to you.

    Please know that I value all letters my office receives. They allow me to better understand the concerns of the people I represent. Unfortunately, due the ease with which electronic mail, postcards and fax machines allow for the generation of “form” letters, some drafted by a third party, I no longer have the resources to respond to those communications. However, be assured that I review a copy of every form letter my office receives and I will continue to respond to letters sent by constituents who have written a personal correspondence.

    Again, thank you for sharing your thoughts with me.

    Sincerely,

    ED PASTOR
    Member of Congress

    So…if you don’t send your message in an envelope with a stamp on it, Ed Pastor doesn’t really care.

    “…House Democrats allowed the terrorist surveillance program to expire, and in the dead of the night on February 16, 2008, every single American became less safe.”

    On the night in question, Pelosi and Pals (the Dems) explicitly demonstrated just how little they care for the safety and security of the citizens of this country.

    By allowing FISA to lapse, the House Democrats not only shut-off America’s porch lights, they left the doors and windows ajar before tucking her head under the covers!

    We are vulnerable right now, dangerously so, and it’s the House Dems that have placed us in this situation - solely for the sake of winning an election.

    The Democrats are shameful.
