Fixing FISA

(I hate to say it but, you know, that really does mean the terrorists have won...) --Digby

Based on what is revealed about McConnel's role in outsourcing military contracts and his willingness to toss around threatening language to the Congress like e.f.p.s, you'd think there would be a little more muckraking in the mainstream media about him right now.

As Digby says,
It's pretty clear why McConnell is so hellbent on immunity for telcoms isn't it? This man is one of the architects of a new shadowy, privatized defense industry that's sprung up over the past few years, an industry that's paid for by you and me, but over which we don't have any say, either as individuals or through our representatives in congress. It makes Ike's military industrial complex look positively benign by comparison.
