A news alert from the NYT:

Senate Votes to Broaden Government's Spying Powers

By a vote of 68 to 29, the Senate gave final approval to a
bill that expands the government's spying powers and gives
legal protection to phone companies that cooperated in
President Bush's warrantless eavesdropping program.

I want to know who those 68 senators are. I'd be worried about the ghosts of Franklin and Jefferson paying them a visit some dark night. All Americans should be appalled by this craven act.
