Will people never learn? Remember a certain dress-wearing head of the FBI who held onto power because he knew all the dirty secrets? Remember the sigh of relief once he finally died and the rules were changed so we wouldnt have to endure another one like him?
Oh wait, but then some very angry men did the unthinkable, everybody panicked, and hey,ho, Hoover! Happy spying days are here again! There are enough members of the U.S. Senate who care enough to try and change things, but their foe is implacable, and shows little interest following rules anyway.
Let us not forget that whatever the rules may say, the Bush Corporation has a great love of sub-contracting. So perhaps it wont really matter what Congress or the courts, or anybody does. Maybe BushCo will get all the information it needs from "concerned citizens" who are just keeping an eye on their neighbors. For money.
Hey, if it'll work for torture, it'll work for everything.

Yeah, no more quibbling about starting down a slippery civil rights slope. We've already fallen, slid to the bottom, and immersed ourselves in the muddy shit at the bottom. Not that asshat of a President appears to be plunging our heads under the excrement for good measure.
