Justice inspector general to review terrorist surveillance program - Homeland Stupidity
Topic: Civil Liberties 11:21 am EST, Nov 30, 2006

It looks like the election of Democrats has created some progress for those concerned about the NSA program.

"I wonder whether this reversal is only coming now after the election as an attempt to appease Democrats in Congress who have been critical of the NSA program and will soon be in control and armed with subpoena power," Hinchey said in a news release.

But not too much progress...

Translation: We’re going to look at how the intercepts from this program were handled internally, but not whether the program is legal.

Prediction: In six months to a year, the OIG will release a report stating that it could find no evidence that DOJ mishandled intelligence products from the program.

This link, and the stories it links, are worth a read.
