Eric and Barry got smacked down yet again last Friday, when a federal judge ruled that no, the FBI can't cut internet service and then pose as technicians in order to conduct a search of premises. They don't get to cut phone or internet or cable services and then pose as Larry the Cable Guy to gain access.
When I read about this last year, I initially wondered what idiot would come up with such a plan and think it was okay. Then it occurred to me that this is, after all, the Obama administration.
They've now lost some 22 cases, yet they still don't seem to think that our laws apply to them. As the old saying goes, you can't fix stupid.
