Bush's phone immunity bill wins Senate vote

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President George W. Bush's demand for immunity for telephone companies that participated in his warrantless domestic spying program won an initial victory on Monday in the U.S. Senate.

---------------------

You think Reuters could have come up with a more misleading headline? I can't see how. Notice this was posted about 30 minutes after Reid decided to postpone debate until after the Holidays.

Shameful.

Dodd Wins Round 1 (none / 0)
Reid had to remove bill from floor due to Dodds. Next Round in Jan 2008

Don't celebrate too early. (none / 0)
The phone company immunity bill will pass.

Reid will pick the right time and then ram it through.

How many times have you seen this before?

200?

300?
