House Grants Telecom Amnesty, Expands Spying Powers Threat Level from Wired.com:
"The Democratic-controlled House of Representatives quickly passed a bill Friday that will expand the government's ability to install blanket wiretaps inside the United States. It will also put an end to the lawsuits filed against the nation's telecoms for helping the government spy on Americans without getting the necessary court orders.
The vote hands a significant victory to the White House, a few months after House Democrats forced a high-stakes showdown on the same issue in February."
