Chris Dodd - Opposition to retroactive immunity in a bad FISA bill. http://chrisdodd.com ... fisa filibuster ... Chris Dodd thanks the netroots for their support and congratulates his colleagues for their help in the fight against FISA retroactive immunity. http://chrisdodd.com Congresswoman Barbara Lee -- Speaks on the floor of the US House of Representatives in opposition to the compromise legislation, citing that this legislation undermines the ability of federal courts to review the legality of domestic surveillance programs, provides de facto retroactive immunity to telecommunication companies, includes insufficient protections against the practice of "reverse targeting," and does not sunset for four years, delaying review by Congress for far too long. John Tester: - "Let me be clear. I don't want to revise the Patriot Act, I want to repeal it." President Bush -- Tries to respond to the fact his administration used a knowingly false terror threat to get the F.I.S.A. law passed last August. Learn more about the Republicans bogus terror threat here-- http://thinkprogress.org/2007/09/20/harman-terror-attack/ The War on Civil Liberty -- A brief history of the Patriot Act, showing the many deceptions brought in by the Bush Administration, including: requesting total secrecy form public input and swapping at the last moment, the original Bill that Congress agreed to sign, with one manipulated by the Administration. The Administration's version of the Bill contained unconstitutional provisions that had been rejected earlier by Congress. Regardless, Congress rushed to pass an, otherwise, unread Bill which sought to greatly expand all federal law enforcement powers - far beyond their intended means. Hence, America would later discover that the Patriot Act had little, if anything, to do with fighting the actual "war on terror" and much more to do with bypassing the civil protections, granted under the US Constitution.
