As ACLU Challenges FISA Law in Federal Court, Justice Department Moves to Immunize Spying Telecoms

If nothing wrong was done, why seek immunity? End of that debate.

Spying on any citizen, without any basis for doing so, is right? Then why seek immunity? End of that debate.

If obeying a government order couched as a request is right, then why seek immunity? End of that debate.

Is it the Justice Department's role to not only instigate what is clearly a series of illegal acts againt citizens, but then to turn around and try to cover up the entire sordid affair with ex post facto blanket immunity? Let's end that debate by having the whole hyena cabal put on trial.
