(FBI's Wish is Granted)
Zitat:
Patrick Poole, deputy director of the Free Congress Foundation, called
it a case of bill stuffing. Every year in the last few days of
congress the FBI tries to sneak previously rejected legislation into
must-pass legislation, including budgets, Poole said.
"There is a flaw in the process that law makers take advantage of to
pass controversial laws that do not stand up to open debate," said
Poole. "This is how they managed to make the National Identity Cards
Law."
