what is the official reason congressional democrats are giving immunity to telecom companies?
since immunity implies that laws were broken? Is that how we roll now in this country, to give immunity expost facto to law breakers? Is there no longer such a thing as doing things within the existing laws and within constitutional guidelines?
While republicans clearly do not have the people’s interest at heart, I also find the democrats to be guilty as well when it comes to such things as NAFTA, illegal immigration, perpetual funding of the perpetual war in iraq, and acting like spineless cowards.

Wrong on every count. You don’t seem to understand what is going on around you. The government asks for cooperation from private citizens. In exchange immunity from any prosecution is granted. It is a fair deal. There is no law breaking. It is done to keep lawsuit-crazy lawyers off the backs of cooperating citizens.
I think I smell a liberal here. Your second paragraph is just plain trash. Republicans are people and citizens.
I thinks its becuase the republicans allowed them to put a bunch of extra social projects and earmarks on the bill in exchange for voting for it.
Once again for the dems, our privacy is less important than their pet projects. They do the same exact thing with the Iraq war funding – vote for it so long as they can get a bunch of favors for their states. Again, soldiers lives take a back seat to pet projects.
Our congress needs a complete overhaul.
I happen to be a Paul support and have no party loyalty. Country before party.
They are totally corrupt and have been paid off by the big corporations. The Democrats aren’t going to save you. The Republicans have already failed you. Don’t vote for Obama or McCain. They are both two of the same. The corporate powers that be are already expecting the Democrats to win this election and are dumping big money into the Dems pockets. You know its true.
They don’t need to watch our internet conversations and tap into our phone conversations about our personal life without probable cause to catch terrorists. That is pure bull sh*t! This is NOT the people’s communist republic of China fellow citizens. We are supposed to be a FREE COUNTRY. A constitutional republic founded on individual liberty. We are the masters. The government is our servant.
democrats are pussies…been so for 7 years
Michelle S:
You are the typical spineless, cowardly American. Your 4th ammendment rights have been trampled on, and you have no problem with it if it gives you that false security. Here is the thing…you dont get to decide why they might want to pick you up as a terrorist and now they can do so for any reason.
I dont know about you but if they need to listen to my phone calls to Catch a terrorist I’m all for that.
If they get a few other bad guys in there, I’m ok with that too.
I think some of our freedom laws allows the People to do to many crimes. The law works against our law enforcement.
I can’t believe it was even up for debate.
The tel com companies are a private company, and if the Government asks them do something, and they do, they should amnesty.
You can’t fight this war with the old laws.
