There is sound speculation why Da Dims in the House are not voting to extend the FISA law: note how the telephone companies are failing to cooperate further without some form of protection against what will become frivilous lawsuits? There are already $billion of potential lawsuits in the works, and with trial lawyers being one of the major contributors to Da Dims party, the House members are just following - toady style - what their political masters are telling to do. So the bottom line for Da Dims is:

"Let's don't offend one of our major financial backers, lest we find ourselves cut off from sucking at their trough, so we'll put the country at risk instead."
