    We need a "live debate" person on the floor

    I mean, to let Bond & Coreyn to get away with such blatant fibs without a point-by-point breakdown of their lies is almost criminal. Bond just claimed that, and I'm paraphrasing, "because the bill says a warrant is needed if an American is 'possibly' targeted, and it is impossible to determine that at the time the call is being made, then ALL foreign calls require a warrant!"

    What? That has never been the case. That will never be the case. It is a Flat. Out. Lie. And he shouldn't be able to get away with that.
