Meet the new President, same as the old President: WASHINGTON -- Attorney General Eric Holder says a lawsuit in San Francisco over warrantless wiretapping threatens to expose ongoing intelligence work and must be thrown out.In reality, of course, there’s no substantive difference between two policies: Kevin Bankston, a lawyer for the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a civil liberties group in San Francisco that is pursuing a similar lawsuit against the government, called Holder’s decision “incredibly disappointing.”Any one of you who thought that the Obama Administration would end the over-reaching interpretation of Presidential power than we saw during the Bush Administration should realize just how foolish you were by now. |
