Amazed at the LACK of news coverage on this legislation

Yeah, it's kind of nice to think they've now given banks the ok to go through snooping through all our transactions.

Also, I'm disappointed that in most of the news coverage I've seen they are making it seem like Congress just passed some "internet gambling ban" and are either not mentioning or just skirting past the fact that it was just kind of stuck onto the port security bill. I think this sort of tactic would make it interesting to the general public, even if they don't care about internet gambling.

You seem to be under the impression that this is a rare occurance.

I would say it's because the Bush family doesn't want the public to realize their "free" country isn't as free as they think as they slowly turn it into a totalitarian gov't.
