American Freedom?

Although there hasn't been much coverage on any TV news networks, something huge happened today in the USA. The FISA bill passed. This bill allows for the Telecom companies who sold personal information to the intelligence agency to be excused from any charges. What this means for you is that if you plan on communicating with anyone in another country, or with someone from another country, your conversations can be listened to without any type of warrant. Freedoms in this country continue to decline in an effort to "protect the country". As far as South Carolina goes, Jim DeMint (1-202-224-6121) voted for this bill. Senator Lindsey Graham did not (1-202-224-5972). As far as possible future presidents go, McCain voted for this while Obama did not.
