Or was it slipped \"under the radar\" in the conference committee? If your leg history analyst wants to see another example of an under-the-radar change, have them look up the \"roving wiretap\" privisions. These were neither in the Senate nor the House bill when first passed, but appeared sui generis in the conf committee report (with a \"do pass\" reccommendation that resulted in nobody reading the bill before passage). It\'s a favorite trick of the scumbags, reserved for the worst provisions.
