Congress to Investigate ChoicePoint

twzop writes "I just saw a story on the CBS evening news about the previously posted story about ChoicePoint, Inc. in Atlanta, GA getting hacked and US citizens' data being compromised. The story stated that Congress was going to get involved by investigating the scandal and that there was a large class action lawsuit against the private firm."

    You can't even read - for example, I said "90% of their 57,000 voters", which should be enough for anyone who cares about democracy. Let's just say that the list's lively path ended at the counties, which "ignored it" (only a few had the integrity to do so). What has that got to say about ChoicePoint and Harris? NOTHING. They made the list, did what harm they could. That action by the counties says nothing but that even a bunch of $8:hour county bureaucrats couldn't hold their noses and just follow the Secretary of State's criminal orders. But that's good enough for *you*, right? Harris and ChoicePoint aren't criminals, because, unlike Nixon, they didn't get caught. Isn't that the motto of you dirty trick Republicans?

    You're another Republican zombie with your foregone conclusion, who grabs any talking point that will support it. I sure hope you like what you've got in your White House, because your boy is going to be burning it down for another few years.
