"retroactive immunity" in the FISA bill

Chris Dodd is leaving Iowa to go to Washington City to filibuster the NSA/GOP version of the FISA bill.

I suggest viewing the demo on Glimerglass's Government and Signals Monitoring & Analysis web page. At the point where multicast is mentioned is where the technical mechanism for intercept (wiretap) is casually referenced.

If the NSA/GOP bill becomes law we will move Wampum to Switzerland. Not because of what has happened, but because of what will happen.

Update: Clinton and Obama will not join Dodd. Feingold and Kennedy will join Dodd.

Name Fax Voice

Feingold (202) 224-2725 (202) 224-5323
Dodd (202) 224-1083 (202) 224-2823

Boxer (415) 956-6701 (202) 224-3553

Call'em. If the aid says (like Bernie's) that s/he is a co-sponsor, tell the aid that that is necessary, but not sufficient. Their boss must get on the floor with Dodd, Feingold and Kennedy.

Crooks & Liars and FDL have a post asking for material for Dodd to read during his filibuster.
