[QUOTE="retiredone, post: 88131, member: 1576"] Why should anyone take the US congress seriously? They are debating how to amend existing law to accomodate folks who have already broken immigration law. Let's be serious. More people will violate whatever they come up with; and 10 years from now we will be talking about new immigration "reform" to accomodate the next batch of violators. The same point can be applied to Bush violating FISA. The issue never was about the ability to monitor possible threats. The issue is that Bush chose to ignore the law (congress) by not disclosing surveilance after the fact to the special FISA court. Now congress is accomodating him by discussing changes to the law. If congress wants to be taken seriously, the starting point for any revision to law is to insist on enforcement of existing law. [/QUOTE]
