This time it's about wiretapping. Two months ago the Dems promised to roll back the broad, over-reaching wiretapping authorities given to the National Security Agency. A Democratic bill being released to the House today shows that they have no intention of doing any such thing. Nancy Pelosi's office stated that the bill gives the NSA what it legitimately needs to protect America.
Why do they ever need to wiretap without without a warrant? A FISA court can be called in secret at any time of day or night. These courts can issue warrants in secret on the authority of a judge knowledgeable in national security, yet the Democrats don't think even that should be required.
