Every time that you think that this subject has been been beating down by the forces of good, then comes the forces of evil. A coalition of activists defeated the last effort of the Telecoms to get immunity. But that was then, this is yet another attempt to avoid lawsuits and possibly prosecution and jail time by the telephone companies. They unlawfully gave the Bush administration information that they should not have had. Information that may have been obtained with a court warrant but the Bush administration didn’t want to fool with anything as democratic as the courts. Blogger Glenn Greenwald
