Insider Sabotage

We know telcom immunity conspiracy is not about to go away. We know that these conspirators are going to pile on at that exact moment when they try and ram this through. The trail signs suggest that it might coincide with that distraction which is being run by FCC Chairman Kevin J. Martin, with his plan for further media concentration, by Christmas. Plan on every distraction that they engineer into play, to be compelling.

DU points us to this article in The Hill:

'I think it's very important that the courthouse not be closed so there can be a judicial determination to see if there have been any violations of privacy rights', Specter said. 'I think the telephone companies were good citizens, and should not suffer from what they did. And my idea is to have the government substituted as the party.'"

So then why not simply float another corporate welfare bail-out bill, after the fact? Because what Specter proposes is putting up a wall of professional liars, con men, swindlers, cheats and frauds between the People and justice.

Let us not forget what the federal government thinks of a level playing field: They frequently seize all assets of criminal defendants upon arrest in order to assure that defendants cannot pay for lawyers. And that doesn't even begin to describe how government rigs the system in order to assure that they prevail, ad nauseum.

Senator Specter, I respectfully remind you that you traded for your office, as previous chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, in exchange to the Executive for promising obeisance to him. Buying and selling of office is repugnant. Betraying the American People to the 5th Estate along the course of events with results that end in the privatization of the Internet, is onerous.
