Barack Obama will filibuster telecom immunity
Commendable action from the Obama camp:
"To be clear: Barack will support a filibuster of any bill that includes retroactive immunity for telecommunications companies."
This is in reference to attempts to include immunity from prosecution for the telecoms over illegal wiretapping charges under direction of the Bush Administration. I say burn 'em at the stake, and hopefully it follows right back to the administration.

finally some one to fight telecom giants, I wonder how often this has happened sense the government broke up Ma Bell.
In such a high profile manner? Probably not much.
