Whoa! Look at the spin on that article! So much BS! RT @imbou: House Votes to Limit N.S.A.’s Collection of Phone Data http://t.co/LrPOjGPsFp21:09:27
.@imbou The bill that passed was stripped of all the meaningful restrictions and actually explicitly granted MORE powers in other areas! in reply to imbou21:10:25
.@imbou What is left is at best a big nothing, and at worst makes things worse. in reply to imbou21:11:18
.@imbou Those lauding this as a big improvement are just doing “lets say we did something meaningful so people stop bitching about it”. in reply to imbou21:12:49
RT @imbou: @abulsme I'm not going to say its a big nothing but it sure as hell is not as good as it hold be. 21:16:27
.@imbou To me this ends up looking like a bill legitimizing the practices overall, which engrains them further rather than rolls them back. in reply to imbou21:17:08
.@imbou Even if it limits some very specific techniques, it does so in ways that don’t hinder very much at all, other tech still available. in reply to imbou21:18:45
RT @natsecHeather: This notif is a gr8 xample of how US troops get deployed w/o an AUMF. Note it is much more public than under #AUMF. http… 20:01:16

Hmmm… I see one of the “new poll” tweets was repeated a second time 35 minutes after it originally went. Odd. Guess I have another bug. :-/ 00:31:07
.@BYUfan Of course, he started his site before everybody standardized on Rep=Red, Dem=Blue, so he has it the other way! Confusing! :-) in reply to BYUfan21:37:59
