That’s rather curious, no?
I feel so much safer knowing that Big Brother is evesdropping on my electronic communications that I don’t lock my doors any more, I leave the keys in the ignition switch, I invite junkies over for dinner...I’m sure they will not only stop any and all terrorist threats, but will make it impossible for habitual criminals to continue and it will cure my asthma...
The thing reads in a 5 to 4 vote.
Roberts again?????????
It will be unok if a Repub ever gets elected president again
Thank you George Bush - who obviously flunked history.
“Yesterday, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the Federal Government can continue to Spy on and monitor the phone conversations of Americans.”
I believe the ruling stated that in this case there was no standing, and that the government would be subject to legal action if an actual violation of rights against an individual were to occur in the future.
That's NOT what the Court ruled, not even close, which means that the author of this blog is incredibly stupid or just plain deceitful. The court did not address the merits of the law; rather, the Court ruled that the Petitioners lacked Article III "standing" to sue because any harm that they might suffer under the FISA is speculative and too uncertain as to events that may or may not happen at some unknown time in the future.
