Congressional Spy Focus to Expand

From the Washington Post, hard on the heels of the news that the NSA spy program was much more extensive than previously believed. Comment from a Republican aide: "We want to look at the entire program, an in-depth review, and this new data-mining issue is certainly a part of the whole picture" One can only hope it'll be more expeditious than Phase II of the senate's intelligence investigation. Party unity is fracturing as the elections in 2006 approach; an honest investigation into the NSA affair could widen the cracks in the republican ranks as the true conservatives sheer away from the administration apologists.
