Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Rockefeller Has Taken Thousands from Telecom Executives

Looks like a clear case of bribery to me.

So, apart from Rockefeller's corruption, not only did the telecoms break the law by going along with Bush's illegal spying program, NOW they are trying to bribe a key Democrat to sway legislation to keep them out of trouble!

Since I don't exactly see Washington DC or the media up in arms about this, I guess this is the American way, huh?
