The Senate voted Tuesday to shield from lawsuits telecommunications companies that helped the government eavesdrop on their customers without court permission after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
After nearly two months of stops and starts, the Senate rejected by a vote of 31 to 67 a move to strip away a grant of retroactive legal immunity for the companies.
Heh heh.

If Webb’s son is still in Iraq and is as big a worthless wussy as Webb he’s so far from combat he couldn’t hear a 5,000 pound bomb go off and has a big ‘PI’ stamped on his records to assure he stays away.
