Lying or Ignorant

It's can't be both.

I keep reading, and seeing in the media, the number of right wing pundits who continue to say that the new FISA law is only to spy on foreigners.

This is not true. The new law allows spying on U.S. citizens if the spy's, with oversight by that intrepid civil libertarian Abu Gonzales (and Mike McConnell supposedily), "reasonably believe" that the conversation is a terrorist related.

But our equally vigilante and well-informed reporters are on it, correcting the factual record at every turn!

Right!

Wrong.
