Is the "domestic spying" still going on today ?
..as we speak? Have they stopped spying on Americans until this criminality issue has been settled? Or are they still snooping? Isn't it time for Congress to do something? Anything to stop this illegal spying? Anyone heard? Is it still going on?

1. Are you serious?

This is the "just try and stop us" administration. They will continue doing the following until someone does (stop them, that is):

extraordinary rendition & torture
invading other countries (primarily using forged intel for cover)
trashing constitutional rights
bankrupting the country via tax cuts for those who do not need them
all new laws written by corporate lobbyists
lying about it all on TV
etc etc

2. I'm sure it is still going on
because nothing has really been done to stop it. There hasn't been a concerted outrage to make them be cautious about it, either.

3. Yes, they are doing it, nobody's talking about it, and they NEVER
plan on putting a stop to it.

The Specter hearings were a bad joke, played by both Pukes and Dems.

4. I have been asking this since Dec.16
when the asshat said he would continue to do it. Yes he is still doing it. To my knowledge NO ONE has asked him to stop while it is being investigated.:grr:

5. YES, as we debate the issue--it IS going on. NO DEM or REpuk has stood
up and said STOP THIS NOW!

12. Bushie very clearly said that he intended to keep on doing it, so
my assumption is that it is still ongoing. Remember, this is an administration that sticks to its guns (so to speak)!

13. Why isn't anyone trying to stop it?
I am new to these political games so please forgive my ignorance. I truly don't understand how so many in congress oppose this program but none of them will propose legislation to halt it. Can someone educate me?
