"Senate Panel Rejects Proposal to Probe Eavesdropping
March 7 (Bloomberg) -- The U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee rejected a proposal to investigate the Bush administration's program of conducting electronic eavesdropping without warrants, while agreeing to create new congressional panels to increase oversight."
Someone needs to explain how on earth with clear violations to the law that nothing is even going to be investigated. Disgusting. Frist threatened to completely change the Senate Intell Committee and the response to such a horrible threat is to let this go. We've had 4 weeks of Congress pretending to be pissed off about scary foreigners owning a port company, yet when something actually important needs taking care of everybody says to hell with the Constitution. I continue to be stunned at the utter apathy to brazen criminal behavior, be it this, torture, Gitmo or shonky deals.
