Sir: You seem a lot more concerned about denying trial lawyers the potential of large fees for defending the legitimate causes of injured parties than you do about the peoples' loss of their rights to be made whole after a tortious injury. You seem to care not a whit about the unConstitutional acts of a runaway administration, too often aided and abetted by complicit Democrats in the House and Senate. The FISA court is an unConstitutional organ of a pretend judiciary operating as a subsidiary of the executive branch. There is NO emergency power granted in the Constitution except one: the suspension of habeas corpus in the event of invasion or rebellion. CJ Taney ruled, while Lincoln was president, that as long as the courts could operate, the government could not suspend habeas corpus; therefore, as per the current state of affairs, THERE IS NO CONSTITUTIONAL EMERGENCY POWER IN THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT! The communications corporations who willfully aided and abetted the violations of peoples' civil rights ought to be held accountable, just like the cops who went prison for beating Rodney King; just like O.J. Simpson; just like the two border patrol agents now serving time for enforcing the immigration laws. If the stockholders of Verizon, etc., get burned for a few pennies on their dividends, maybe they'll demand that management obey the law for a change. What privilege against prosecution and civil litigation do the communication giants deserve, and why? You, of all people, know that the whole domestic terrorist threat scenario is a Hegelian ruse. Do you believe that the public at large cant see that the emperor is naked? If credibility is something you value, be advised that blind loyalty to political constancy doesn't do anything for you.
