I can only assume that their constituents are intelligent enough to see the nonsense. And I make that assumption by the fact that they didn't elect CONS to office in the first place.

...remember when the RNC took out all those one page ads that "Catholics Need Not Apply" too? Republicanism, the true party of deception and terrorism - ban it!

Defense of Democracies looks like it's run by that smarmy little worm, Clifford May.

Maybe another group needs to target ads towards those who supported Bush's attempt to subvert oversight of illegal wiretapping and giving a free ride to those telecoms that helped. This crap about national security is just that...crap. It's another attempt by Bush to garner as much power for the executive branch of government to trump Congress and the courts.

Knowing what the government has done to the teleco's in the past 20 years or so it doesn't surprise me one bit they did what the government told them to.
Probably worried they'd be declared a monopoly again and be forced to sell their equipment for less then it costs them to maintain it.

My one big question about this so-called security issue is...Don't these yahoos know that these 'rules' if implimented can be used aginst them!!!!
Removing any civil rights safeguard is a double edged sword...It just depends who is in power at the moment...
But a Constitutionally mandated safeguard...while, not in any way perfect, protects everybody....
