The ad wrongly paints Dems as being the ones who have held up the FISA bill because of their insistence on providing immunity to telecoms to cover up President Bush's illegal program. Boyda responds in the Joplin Globe: "US Rep. Nancy Boyda, D-Kan, said House Democrats are finally standing up to President George W. Bush. She said the Senate bill would eliminate the oversight and checks and balances provided by the Constitution. "My No. 1 priority is keeping Americans safe and going after the terrorists," Boyda said. "You don't have to shred the Constitution to do it." She said there is little judicial or congressional oversight in the bill, giving free reign to the executive branch. "The Protect America Act does away with court oversight and puts everything in the executive branch," Boyda said. "People should be horrified of that." Boyda said the Federal Intelligence Surveillance Act has been amended over the years so that it keeps up with changing technology. While the president has said the House failure to approve the Senate bill is endangering American lives, Boyda said he is engaging in fear-mongering and she expects that tactic to continue. Boyda also said she doesn't favor giving immunity to the telephone and communication companies. "The president will not tell us what he wants immunity from," Boyda said. "He wants blanket immunity. The American people should be alarmed." " www.joplinglobe.com <b>...</b>
