A three year old story hits the front page of the NY Times. The NSA started doing eavesdopping samplings after 9/11 to track down those “sleeper cells” we Americans were concerned about. Would there be another terrorist attack? Note that this story is an old story around since 2002.
Also…
The Senate considers filibustering an extention on the Patriot Act today.
Coincidence? I think not. It certainly appears either the NY Time is trying to influence the Senate, or the Democrats in the Senate have some stroke with the NY Times.
