The Bush Administration asked a federal judge to dismiss a lawsuit against AT&T for complying with a government “request” to turn over– without the inconvenient assistance of an actual warrant or subpoena– information about millions of private phone calls made by Americans.

What’s wrong with you people out there? Can’t you read? Why are there no marchers in the streets to celebrate this victory of liberty against government over-reach, this violation of civil rights?
Where are the raging editorials? Where are the outraged investigative pieces on the news?
