Sen. Sam Brownback (R-Bungholio) is shocked that the Chinese government spies on people without warrants, oversight, or probable cause. But when the Cheney administration menstruation does exactly same thing, Brownback thinks that’s fine, because when we do it, it's always the right way for the right reasons.
We don't put the hardware and software on hotels. If there is a targeted individual that seems to be a likely prospect of terrorists, they must go through the FISA court and ask for a court to determine that there is probable cause to be able to listen in on that information.He then added(slight paraphasing):
"Instead, we put the hardware and software at the telecom companies where we can more effectively monitor all communications, not just the communications from the hotels. Then, despite being against the law, we grant the telecoms retroactive immunity."Rule 1: America is never wrong
Rule 2: If America appears to be wrong, see Rule 1
There, fixed it.
