# 54 Bush slips TIA into intelligence reform bill.

The Orwellian Total Information Awareness program was nixed in 2003 by Congress after a huge outcry from freedom-loving Americans.

Now Bush has installed the same increased wiretapping, surveillance, search, arrest, detention, and prosecution powers into the recently passed Intelligence Reform bill (mentioned in #23).
