Journal Mr.Intel's Journal: "Total Information Awareness" hits snag in Congress 1

Submitted 10:43am EST on 2-12-03. If it doesn't get posted, at least it is here for the rest of us.

The NYT is reporting that both the Senate and the House have blocked funding for the 'Big Brother' type program. However, the CIA is allowed to present more evidence as to how it would not invade American's privacy, and President Bush could certify that lack of the program would constitue a threat to National Security. Senator Leahy said, "If there is one thing that should unite everybody...it is a concern that our own government should not spy on law-abiding citizens."
