Late breaking news on wiretapping

The LAT reports today that Mukasey and McConnell have changed course, and now say that telecoms are cooperating without retroactive immunity. It must mean that the administration was lying before when it said they weren't, the LAT suggests. It's serious backpeddling, according to a LAT anonymous source. On the record, the ACLU says Bush wants "sweeping powers to wiretap without warrants" and is "playing politics with domestic surveillance legislation." Depend on the ACLU to put the most negative spin on anything Bush does or wants to do. The LAT still doesn't mention that Pelosi blocked legislation that was sure to pass the House before the Protect America Act expired.
