Telecom Retroactive Immunity and Leading Candidates....

"According to research by the Center for Responsive Politics, Senators McCain, Clinton and Obama are by far the top three recipients of telecom industry cash in the 2008 cycle, including tens of thousands of dollars each from AT&T and Verizon."

Too bad there aren't any other candidates allowed in the debates (except Ron Paul) that can put this issue in the other candidates' faces.

The Senators, by a vote of 60-35, move to protect Telecom more than the rights of U.S. citizens.

Duh, if nothing illegal was done, why do they need retroactive immunity.
