Gee Wonder what Rush is going to talk about today? The way Bush just slapped the White House Press Corp around this morning? They have made a SERIOUS error. Bush is pissed.

Or maybe THIS? Simply amazing all the angst in the Failed Media because NSA listened into the coversations of 1,000 or so Al Qeda symps.

Here is the law from another thread tonight.

The pertinent law is 50 USC 1802. Everyone, please read it carefully. No law was broken. Pelosi admits she was briefed (also in accordance with 50 USC 1802):

1802. Electronic surveillance authorization without court order; certification by Attorney General; reports to Congressional committees; transmittal under seal; duties and compensation of communication common carrier; applications; jurisdiction of court Release date: 2005-03-17

(a) (1) Notwithstanding any other law, the President, through the Attorney General, may authorize electronic surveillance without a court order under this subchapter to acquire foreign intelligence information for periods of up to one year if the Attorney General certifies in writing under oath that—
(A) the electronic surveillance is solely directed at— (i) the acquisition of the contents of communications transmitted by means of communications used exclusively between or among foreign powers, as defined in section 1801 (a)(1), (2), or (3) of this title; or
(ii) the acquisition of technical intelligence, other than the spoken communications of individuals, from property or premises under the open and exclusive control of a foreign power, as defined in section 1801

(a)(1), (2), or (3) of this title; [e.g., defined as terrorists /angkor]

(B) there is no substantial likelihood that the surveillance will acquire the contents of any communication to which a United States person [e.g. citizen or perm. resident /angkor] is a party; and

(C) the proposed minimization procedures with respect to such surveillance meet the definition of minimization procedures under section 1801 (h) of this title; and if the Attorney General reports such minimization procedures and any changes thereto to the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence and the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence at least thirty days prior to their effective date, unless the Attorney General determines immediate action is required and notifies the committees immediately of such minimization procedures and the reason for their becoming effective immediately.

[YaYa123]

The White House press pool = bitchslapped, humiliated, and exposed as idiots.

The U.S. Senate didn't escape attack either.


Oh my...I've never been soooooooooooooo proud of this president.

Don't miss Rush today. He'll play clips, and I"ll probably be applauding and cheering all over again.

(anyone know who the one guy was who got the president's finger pointed at him? )

[TCats]

you mean the guy who inserted the phrase'Unchecked (Presidential) Power' into his otherwise unremarkable question?

[SE Mom]

I (again) have to miss Rush today- but I'm on a roll- for anyone who just heard that ABSOLUTELY STUPENDOUS news conference with the president- please send him a BIG THANK-YOU note at:
comments@whitehouse.gov

He was ON FIRE- at his very best! A great way to start the week!

[Enterprise]

I hope he comes with a flame thrower!

Michelle Malkin had a few quotes up on the President's presser.

Peter Baker/WaPo. "Is there going to be a permanent expansion of unchecked power?" Bush: You're not listening to what I'm telling you...you are ascribing some kind of dictatorial power to the president, which I reject...

Money quote from the President:

"It's inexcusable to tell us to 'connect the dots' and not give us the tools to do so." He asks the Senators of New York, Los Angeles and Las Vegas: How will you explain how your cities and states are safer?

[sono]

Oh ... and on the matter of civilian casualties - have a look:

[Liberty Valance]

I actually understand what you just posted...lol

I'm very happy Rush is in today. Wasn't sure if he was taking the week off like a lot of other hosts. Should be a good show.
