They do have a talent for turning a phrase, don't they?

The comments make perfect sense to me. It's what dims do.

Funny thing is, the lefties would be the first to use surveillance to watch what we do instead of the jihadis.

What hypocrites.

Was just about to comment on the utter joy I feel anytime a war funding or FISA bill passes.

HaHa

Look, not to sound stupid, but can some explain why this is a good thing? I'm afraid all I have seen is left-wing media "explaining" it and I really don't know the facts.

Thanks :)

Hey, little Dems, come on over here. I have somthin' for ya!

It's a double whammy. Not only did FISA get passed - with telecom immunity of a sort, but the war appropriations bill did as well.

That howling you hear? That's the sound of lefties not realizing that their brand of politics doesn't hold as much sway in DC as they thought, even with a majority in the House and Senate.

No more phoning their al Qaeda Den Mothers without Uncle Sam listening in. Poor little Jihadis!

Many of them played this to give each other cover. The only ones worth a damn are Dennis Kucinich, Barbara Lee, Pete Stark, Wexler and maybe a handful of the others. The rest, particularly the leadership, isn't worth shit.

re: #9 ninjadan

FISA - the Federal Intelligence Surveillance Act, enables the government to use national intelligence means to gather intel on all manner of sources, including communications coming into the US from foreign countries. The telecoms were helping out, and ACLU and others filed suit to stop it. An amendment was offered up to give them immunity, and that's held up passage. The version passed provides immunity of a sort - since the AG's office can basically say that the telecoms were acting under authorization of the President for the period involved.

All this stems from the fact that the FISA courts didn't operate as efficiently as necessary to allow intel gathering in an efficient and timely manner post 9/11.

Democrats For Terrorists advocacy group intends to sue. King Justice Stevens to rule based on the unapproved EU Constitution, which he finds preferable.

This really is a glimpse into the Lefty mind set.
It is, about fairness to them. The jihadis do not have the capability that we do to tap phones. That is just unfair.
It is that thinking that leads them to conclude that we should destroy our nukes , while defending terrorist states like Iran going nuclear.
It's all about being fair.

They always accuse the Republicans of doing what they would do themselves.

It's important to note that there are provisions in the bill that actually make it harder to gather intelligence. For example, A FISA warrant is now needed to wiretap Americans who are overseas. (That's why it's a compromise, not a suck-off KosKidz.)

Echelon is a system used by the United States National Security Agency (NSA) to intercept and process international communications passing via communications satellites. It is one part of a global surveillance systems that is now over 50 years old. Other parts of the same system intercept messages from the Internet, from undersea cables, from radio transmissions, from secret equipment installed inside embassies, or use orbiting satellites to monitor signals anywhere on the earth's surface. The system includes stations run by Britain, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, in addition to those operated by the United States. Although some Australian and British stations do the same job as America's Echelon sites, they are not necessarily called "Echelon" stations. But they all form part of the same integrated global network using the same equipment and methods to extract information and intelligence illicitly from millions of messages every day, all over the world.

Echelon
The dems do not even know about this

I have to disagree with your premise. I do not like the "authorities" snooping around me either, for privacy reasons, and because it is a violation of my rights, and a reduction of my freedom. The Funding Fathers would probably all be in prison within a year in the current societal situation. Make no mistake, they would be labeled as nuts' rebels, and agitators and hauled off to prison because they would not stand for the government usurping the rights of it's citizens like the government has for the last 50 years. Do you really think the Constitution gives the government the power to tell you what light bulbs you can use. Do you think the government has the authority to define thought crimes and prosecute people for what they decide they might be thinking?

A worthwhile read here....
Putting Obama and the Dems on the Defensive

It really is a win for the Bush Administration, and a loss for the Democrats, including Barack Obama. The Dems have been screaming for years about this illegal domestic spying program -- this bill puts the lie to that theme. It acknowledges that FISA warrants were never before required for eavesdropping suspects overseas, but that with new systems that routes world-wide communications through the United States, it was time to allow for FISA to be updated to reflect the realities of the latest technologies.

The government will be allowed, in circumstances that dictate it, immediate authority to commence wiretaps as long as they notify the FISA Court within 7 days. The Court would then have 30 days to approve a warrant, during which time the surveillance can continue. The FISA bill also offers retroactive immunity for telecommunications companies who assisted the federal government post-9/11. The current lawsuits by liberal groups will be allowed to go forward, but will be dismissed upon the production of evidence that the companies were complying with the request of the federal government and the President.

The Democrats lie to their voters and they think that Barack will be different even though he has already back-peddled on most of the subjects they hold most dear... after telling them something different to get the nomination.

Hold on there, folks. The Wall Street Journal indicates that the FISA bill is a good news/bad news scenario. The bill dilutes the Presidency by requiring ALL "overseas eavesdropping orders to require advance approval by a special FISA court of rotating judges." There is an "urgent threat" exclusion that would still require subsequent FISA court approval. So, our safety is in the hands of appointed judges with little skin in the game and no chance of retribution for poor decisions. Might I suggest congress.org for a little heart-to-heart with one's elected officials.

Additionally, you should all be aware I shook hands and had a photo op with the Newt-ster last week in a neighboring but no less backwards and brutal, fly-over [red] state.

I never cease to be amazed at how absolutely partisan the Democrats have come. It does not matter if a bill is good for this country, if it has anything to do with Republicans or Bush it must be defeated at all costs. Imagine if KosKidz were actually members of Congress...wow C-Span might actually be entertaining to watch...

If KosKidz were in Congress, the "C" in C-Span might be mistaken for another vile word for the female anatomy within a matter of days...

Must be election promises, sometimes they have to pay for those bribes.

re: #138 hippieforlife

Although I am a card-carrying Republican, I know that not all Republicans are wonderful people. What group of people is perfect?

But, I have to admit that I am sick to death of the mewling lefties that make thousands of slurs, some mild, some downright filthy. The left seems to be totally bereft of any sanity or any realistic ideas.

I do not like their particular brand of politics, but I do not see that they have anything to gain by being totally disgusting and hateful.

If they gain the White House with this kind of garbage it will be a sad time for our country.

I believe that the majority wern't spanked enough when they were children.

Echelon uses (nuclear) a computer search (bomb) to look for keywords (President) in electronic communications--if a keyword (jihad) turns up, this message is flagged (death to America) for further examination--or so a spook friend of mine told me once.

Yet they have no problem when the same procedures are used to catch organized crime and international drug dealers (everying the Patriot Act does is already applied to both).

Use it against terrorists? SUddenly it's a problem.

And don't bring up people that want to touch our children! Then you can tear up the Constitution and nobody cares.

Achmed wants to kill your children? Don't take away my "rights" because Achmed is right!

They don't like it because it is called the Patriot act.

Because on our side, we mean what the names of our organizations are or the names of legislation.

Not like commie front groups like "Democracy Now!" etc

Kind of why I thought she came out so hard for Hillary to quit the race...she desperately wants to remain the top female in the Government.

Now, normally I would agree with you, but that would require Pelosi to think at least three days into the future and I don't think she is mentally capable of doing that.

Honest to God, I don't.

re: #123 Killgore Trout

A worthwhile read here....
Putting Obama and the Dems on the Defensive

The government will be allowed, in circumstances that dictate it, immediate authority to commence wiretaps as long as they notify the FISA Court within 7 days. The Court would then have 30 days to approve a warrant, during which time the surveillance can continue. The FISA bill also offers retroactive immunity for telecommunications companies who assisted the federal government post-9/11. The current lawsuits by liberal groups will be allowed to go forward, but will be dismissed upon the production of evidence that the companies were complying with the request of the federal government and the President.

re: #95 beens21

will Obama vote against it? btw,saw a report that Jack Murtha is on the proposed VP list.

There goes the Marine vote.

I think this is common sense, to immunize private telecoms from lawsuit from a government / law enforcement "mandated" 'spying' and trying to get information to keep the country safe.

I really don't understand why KOS and the liberals are so up in arms about it.

Do they appreciate the threat we face from 'terrorists' or 'insurgents' as MSM call them?

I was on Human Rights Commission when we had the discussion whether the Patriot Act was being passed and whether there was an infringement of human rights and privacy.

I understood the nature of nature of eavesdropping to get information to prevent disaster like what we faced from 9-11.

The question I asked, could the Patriot Act be used against 'conservatives' if in the future the national political center moved to the left. What if being 'Christian' or 'practicing Jews' were criminalized and thus the Patriot Act could be used to find underground Christians or Jews?

This scenario is not that farfetched...seeing that Obama has criticized 'right wing Christians' several times in the past...and if he took over...

Consider this, Democrats even talked about nationalizing oil refineries!

Obama would've never made it to the Senate, if Jack Ryan hadn't been exposed as a pervert.

He failed to provide how all of this data (including soc.sec. numbers) will be protected from hackers.

So while they are all worrying about "Bush wiretapping a few overseas conversations between known terrorists," the Democrat Government just grabbed all of our financial data.
