Just a regular Joe who is angry that the USA, the country he loves, is being corrupted and damaged from within and trying to tell his fellow Americans the other half of the story that they don’t get on the TV News.

Specter wants the committee to approve a bill he drafted that tinkers dangerously with the rules on wiretapping, even though the president has said the law doesn't apply to him anyway, and even though Mr. Specter and most of the panel are just as much in the dark as that judge in Detroit. The bill could well diminish the power of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, known as FISA, which was passed in 1978 to prevent just the sort of abuse committed during the Nixon Administration that Mr. Bush's program represents today.

I haven’t seen any of these stories on the evening news where 90% of Americans get their information on current events. Why haven’t these and other stories so important to the US been broadcast to the American people?

My only real question is how could a civilized government ever possibly win a war against terrorists?
