NY Times - New FISA Law Is "Unnecessary And Dangerous Expansion of President Bush’s Powers"

Even the New York Times understands that what Congress did by expanding the President's powers under FISA is dangerous, especially with a power mad administration like the Bush White House is. To quote the NY Times, this act is "unnecessary and dangerous expansion of President Bush’s powers".

Our Congress allowed itself to be bullied into this expansion of powers and they must be held accountable. I strongly suggest writing your Representatives and Senators with you views and more importantly working to campaign against them in any upcoming elections. If they are Republican, work for the Democratic candidate. If the are Democratic, work to make sure they have lots of competition in the primary or work for the independent candidate.
