6. You remember the Senate computer thefts?

Edited on Mon Dec-19-05 07:22 PM by salvorhardin

from 2001-2003?

Dear Attorney General Ashcroft:

As you know, the Senate Sergeant at Arms is currently investigating the theft by Republican staff of internal Democratic computer files from the Judiciary Committee server. Thousands of computer files are involved, and the secret surveillance apparently took place from at least 2001 into 2003. It appears that those involved in this surveillance and theft passed along information derived from their activities to partisan activists and to hand-picked columnists and media organizations. The subject matter of most of the stolen materials appears to have been judicial nominations.

I think an interesting question to ask would be, "Are there any connections to the NSA spying on American citizens here?"
