Failing the "So, What" Test; FISA Edition

As you probably know, Stupie McTorturePants has been agitating for a new FISA law in order to get his buddies in the telephone companies immunity from lawsuits. The drumbeat from the Bushies is that "if we let this law lapse, our security will be in danger."

As a friend of mine observed: "So, what? They'll just wiretap anyway, it's not as though they have shown any inclination to follow the law to date."

I think he's right.
