President Bush claims that Congress' lack of action is making the country less safe while some congressional members refuse to give immunity without knowing just what type of activity telecom companies have been involved in. The Senate gave the President everything he wanted earlier this week. The current domestic-spying law is set to expire on Saturday, February 16.
