U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker starts his hearing on FISA telco immunity at noon Texas time today. Wired is liveblogging the hearing.
Here's among the latest BushCo statements:
The immunity legislation "represents the considered judgment of our nation's political branches that, in the unique historical circumstances following the 9/11 attacks, telecommunications companies should not bear the burden of defending against claims that those companies assisted the government in its efforts to detect and prevent further terrorist attacks."
Yeah, right.
