Comcast, which is among the nation's largest telecommunication companies, charges $1,000 to install a FISA wiretap and $750 for each additional month authorities want to keep an eye on suspects, according to the company's Handbook for Law Enforcement. Secrecy News obtained the document and published it Monday.

    Because the left-wing in American politics wants to use this forum to post their political hit pieces just like they do at Digg?

    Why is it that right-wingers always claim it's a "political hit piece" when somebody states an objective fact.

    Are you fuckers so deluded that you actually think you aren't just a bunch of murderous torture-loving fascists? Just admit that the only difference between you and the Nazis is that you did a quick s/Jew/Arab/ and you haven't built the ovens yet, and we'll call it a day, you awful, death-loving, Hell-bound jerk.
