The Republicans asked that it be closed because of the sensativity of the material. Look for me to post an undate after the Democrats go running to the press and give full disclosure of all the intelligence presented:
During the session, the chamber will discuss an update to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act that has been gridlocked for months over the issue of granting immunity to telecom companies who aided the government in the wake of the Sept. 11.
Following the closed session, the House will debate the FISA bill, which does not include immunity. The Senate has already passed their own version with immunity ” a bill President Bush has urged the House to sign.
House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) agreed to the session Thursday afternoon.
“Mr. Blunt stated that Members in the Minority believe they have information relevant to the debate on FISA that cannot be publicly discussed,” Hoyer said. “The majority agreed to Mr. Blunt’s request so that the Members may hear this information in a secret session that will proceed for one hour.”
Discuss and update FISA laws or figure out the best way to surrender our beautiful country.
I guess we’ll have to see just how much they’ll tell us at the press conference. All I know is that OBL and his stoolies will be watching!!:-w
OH NO ONE KNOWS WHAT GOSE ON BEHIND CLOSED DOOR8-}
