Did you hear this?

The House late Saturday night approved the Republican version of a measure amending the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act by a vote of 227-183, with most Republicans and conservative Democrats supporting the bill.

The White-House backed legislation closes what the Bush administration has called critical gaps in U.S. intelligence capability by expanding the government's abilities to eavesdrop without warrants on foreign suspects whose communications pass through the United States.
(This includes every type of communication forms - such as phone calls, e-mail eavesdropping, ETC.)

The Senate approved its Republican-sponsored bill Friday night. Immediately after that vote, a Democratic-sponsored bill failed to reach the 60-vote majority.

Thought provoker (Soul Asylum- Runaway Train)Smiley list. :D

I wish the government was as worried abt "cleaning under their own beds", as they are about other ppls.Is similar action to what they did in early 1900s when they passed cannabis laws w/o asking ppl or giving them a chance to vote on the issue.

Argh!!! I do not really know what to think. I guess that it might be necassary... but I do not really like the prospect the being spyed on.

Stomyr # Sunday, August 5, 2007 2:10:47 PM

I don't like this either - since they can now spy on everybody with the excuse of : "He is probably a terrorist"
(Since I didn't hear that Bush vetoed it)

Redshigen # Wednesday, August 8, 2007 5:39:21 PM

Yeah! I know! They're probably gonna spy on me just because I speak out against it.

You show me a politician, and I'll show you someone who wants to know everyones business,legal or not.

Leonardavl_wamp # Wednesday, August 8, 2007 6:15:56 PM

Yeah. Also say there are more young ppl now than ever before so if ya want to make a change ya gotta get out there n vote. You have the power but is no good if you don't use it and get some of these a**hats out of office.

Leonardavl_wamp # Saturday, September 1, 2007 4:43:30 PM

I've seen it at local Wallymart. But I'm afraid the most modern thing I have is the N-64. w/3games,I have 16bit Sega,and original 8bit nintendo also. One of my tech. buds has a virtual boy w/Wario and pinball which I get to play sometimes also.

Redshigen # Saturday, September 1, 2007 4:44:51 PM

I REALLY want an origional Nintendo.

Oh, what'a a "virtual boy"? Like Gameboy?
