You Are Being Watched, FISA was about to expire, but in a bizarre bipartisan display of unity in the US Senate and House, it will continue. I don't know what motivates the sickness that is FISA, but despite amendments offered by Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley to get a modicum of protection for civil rights, the House, Senate, and President Obama all want it to continue operating in total secrecy. This act is opposed by the ACLU as being unconstitutional and a violation of the 4th Amendment (Illegal Search on innocent citizens).
Shame on Dianne Feinstein, Harry Reid, and President Obama, this is a dark day for US Citizens. Thanks to Wyden and Merkley for standing up for us.
