    I'm sure that what ever Roger is afraid of saying didn't start an illegal war, kill 4000 American soldiers, did not torture people to "get intelligence" that Iraq was working with Al Quada, didn't help friends and cronies profit off of the blood of Americans, didn't let people sit and die in a flooded city just to get the realestate values low for their buddies to buy.... I can go on.

    Try spinning that back around. His plan simply disqualifies older lines because of the lack of consent records.

    Going forward, the money will be flowing for as many new lines as consent forms can be filled out.

    Right... he banned the use of federal dollars for a field that is conducting very very basic research that has no fiscal upside for 20-30 years. That is tantamount to banning it. Corporations do not do basic research when there is a payout of decades. It is kind of like claiming that EEStor would have done the basic research to invent the capacitor (pretending there is no economic value in a capacitor) so that they could then commence work on the supercap.

    uhh... I don't know about you, but most prosecutors would consider a 7 year prison term to be a pretty hefty bargaining chip to get more information from the guy. Bush took that away and he did in in just a way so fools can claim Bush didn't Quid-pro-quo Libby.

    The fact is 250K is chump change to Libby and the prison term was where the real punishment was.

    Last I read that statement, it was regarding their complete lack of taxation. It did not talk about graduations of representation. Everyone has an equal voice... unfortunalty, some of those people can speak louder because they have most of the money. Since they have the loudest voice, their ideas get represented better and thus, they get to pay less taxes as a percentage of their living expenses than the poor working schlub who comes home covered in grease every day.

    Fascism is a right wing ideology. This idea that Fascism is really a left wing idea has been invented and promoted by the right wing in order to put frame the right as the purity and freedom that represents the best of the enlightenment era. It is a complete trick and a sick one at that.

    There is a reason that the right wing in the US supported hitler and Musalini in the 1930's. There is a reason the right wing tried to start a coup against FDR and install a fascist government.

    I don't know why I am even making this argument to you. you are so far gone into the dementia of the right that you are a lost cause.

    But even a warranted tap can not use anything they hear in a court. If it is outside the scope of the investigation then they need to get a warrant to cover it. FISA allowed them time to get a warrant to cover that conversation. I doubt, by the time that Gozalas approached the congress woman, that there was time to go back to the FISA court.... In reality, I am sure he insinuated that it would "leak" to the press accidentally.

    Uhhh....

    That is the point of the Warrantless Wiretap program... tapping a conversation of a US citizen inside the US needs a warrant. The Bush program went further and was actually Nixonian in that they tapped US citizens and US congress members directly no matter where they called, but the entire program was illegal due to the lack of a warrant on the US side of the conversation.

    Apparently you were too quick to finish reading his port.

    There are A LOT of unprofitable routs and a robust public transportation system needs to cover them... profit making decisions causes those routes to be removed.

    So... the answer to Public transportation is not privatizing it (I know it is hard for Libertarians to understand this) it is to keep it public and to fully support it so that all routes are properly covered.
