Gov't Argument Labeled 'Gobbledygook'

The Bush administration wants to make it easier for law enforcement agencies to wiretap calls made over the internet. The FCC made its pitch to a panel of federal judges today, and the response is priceless:
A judge said the government's courtroom arguments were "gobbledygook."
The judge also characterized the arguments as "nonsense." It gets even better:
