The legislation, part of a measure authorizing the government's intelligence activities for 2008, had been approved a day earlier by the House and sent to the Senate for what was supposed to be final action.

Now, according to Lindsay Graham (R-Ministry of Truth) it's become a "program" that is "lawful and helps the country." If we could rehabilitate Republicans that thoroughly we might even get ourselves out of this mess some day.
