...As part of the program approved by President Bush for domestic surveillance without warrants, the N.S.A. has gained the cooperation of American telecommunications companies to obtain backdoor access to streams of domestic and international communications, the officials said.
The government's collection and analysis of phone and Internet traffic have raised questions among some law enforcement and judicial officials familiar with the program. One issue of concern to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, which has reviewed some separate warrant applications growing out of the N.S.A.'s surveillance program, is whether the court has legal authority over calls outside the United States that happen to pass through American-based telephonic "switches," according to officials familiar with the matter....

is hardly new. The FBI publicizes all their new efforts to get more
money from congress. hell the whole world knows.

NATO AIR said:This is pure aid and comfort to the enemy. This is a war that is fought in the courts, in public opinion and in the halls of power as much as the battlefield and the terrorist's hideouts. These folks don't understand that.
Kathianne said:I think they do Understand. They don't care, as long as US is found at fault. They are the epitome of anti-USA.

That paper has made it their mission to be the fourth branch of government. Interest of serving the people my ass!!

Matt Drudge has posted just-released newspaper circulation figures for the six-month reporting period ending 30 September and it isn't pretty for the liberal old guard.
The Los Angeles Times, infamous for their attempt to sink Arnold last year in a series of last-minute hit pieces before the California recall election, saw a hefty 5.6% circulation drop.
It must not have been a fun day at the even more radical San Francisco Chronicle, where readership fell a staggering 8.5% during the period. The Chronicle has been going downhill ever since former Examiner staffers largely took over control of the paper after the latter's demise in a complicated deal. The formerly moderate Chronicle then took on the extreme political bent of its long-suffering former rival.
The pattern was repeated to a smaller extent at the most certainly leftist Washington Post, with a 3% drop. The more sensible Wall Street Journal saw a 0.8% circulation increase while liberal rivals The Boston Globe and New York Times were essentially flat.
This data backs up my contention that consumers vote with their feet and are dropping subscriptions to biased newspapers they no longer wish to support with their hard-earned money.

December 27, 2005 LGF and commentary by Tim Sumner
Idiotarian of the Year Award
While I agree with Michelle Malkins choice for all the reasons she cites, I must admit the New York Times calling 9/11 family members un-American adds a personal motivation to my voting for them.
With a few notable exceptions, the editors and reporters who work for the New York Times are anti-American. The Times:
discloses classified programs that endangers the lives of our troops, gives aide to Americas enemies, and places us at greater risk here at home
parsed the words of one fallen hero to intentionally mislead people into believing he disagreed with the invasion of Iraq
mentions the bravery of Army Specialist Casey Sheehan as a vehicle to promote the believes they share with his mother
ignored the honorable service and sacrifice of brigades of Military Police men and women in Iraq yet for 47 consecutive days Abu Grahib and the behavior of eight criminals ran on its front page
runs the names of fallen troops in their online edition every day, not to honor them but to editorialize their deaths as the result of President Bushs alleged lie despite the fact that nearly every American political figure also believed Saddam Hussein had WMD,
and only mentions progress in Iraq when it offsets it with a report of a bomb going off or some story of Iraqi corruption or cruetly.
I could go on for pages.
The clear choice for the Idiotarian of the Year Award is the New York Times; the rest of the nominees bow at the very mention of that rags name.
