Meanwhile, Faris's lawyer is puzzled. David Smith says none of the evidence against his client appeared to come from surveillance, except for eavesdropping on Faris's cell phone calls while he was in FBI custody.
The American al-Qa'eda operative unmasked last week as having planned to bring down the Brooklyn Bridge was first detained in March, and has been used by the FBI for months as a double agent, it was reported yesterday.

If this is true and they used evidence not related to the wiretap, then:

1) so long as evidence used was acquired legally then he should be imprisoned.

2) why the need for the wiretap though?

3) 1 out of now what is being reported as hundreds possibly thousands being tapped the question is what are they being tapped for?

4) If you have that much evidence the case for a warrant would have been slam dunk?

I still see NOT ONE RESPONSE FROM THE RIGHT why the simple task of getting warrants was not followed..........

Let's see.......

Fla. the DA and AG get warrants for Limbaugh's illegal doctor shopping and he fights that it is against his civil rights....... the hypocrite even has to get the ACLU involved to protect him. He turns to an organization he rallied against but when he needed it ..... he didn't hesitate.

San Francisco the PEOPLE vote not to allow guns in their city and gun rights activists living everywhere else bitch about their civil rights being stepped on and the NRA threatens lawsuits. The NRA say they are for the rights of the people but now they are suing because voters voted and they feel the majority of the people are wrong?

But now it is ok for government to illegally wiretap people and those who complain or get tapped obviously have reason to be, but fuck the judges and the warrant processes.

So now we apply Constitutional rights to just people we want?

Amazing I thought all rights were equally granted to everybody in this country because the second you start deciding who gets what rights and who doesn't we ultimately all lose our freedom.

Freedom and justice for all.......... not for selected people.

But if you're Bush or a NeoCon..... that means nothing I guess.
