FISA Fight

Robert Novak pens an attack on House Democrats for their actions regarding proposed changes to FISA, more specifically extension of amnesty to Telecom companies.  Via Point of Law.

He places the blame at the feet of trial lawyers, which he imply are salivating at the prospect of getting some of that sweet class-action suit action.  Novak roundly dismisses the possibility that this was because of concerns about civil liberties.

Surely there is no sign that Americans are upset by this attack on the rule of law.  None at all.
