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.
You are correct. I am getting a tan.
I wish I could hear him. I heard a little of Friday's show. He was absolutely on fire.
The caption from time:
All marriages weather storms, but only this career diplomat and his outed spy wife know what it's like to be at the center of the year's biggest political scandal. As the CIA-leak case heated up, Wilson kept criticizing the Administration, while Plame kept a low profile, ultimately leaving the CIA for a better assignment: taking care of the couple's 5-year-old twins.
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
I believe this is where the claims of violation are coming from. Can someone pleases explain why this isn't a violation, as it seems to be.
LOL. Thank you so much, OXEN.
Good golly! Save the drama for your mama, Joe.

Well, she was "undercover".
From what I've seen of Valerie Flame, she physically resembles Laura Ingraham.
On her way to that long day's journey into night :)
Oh that picture is just SICK!
I'm absolutely not directing that at you, of course; it's just SICK!
Of course the picture isn't staged.....don't we all have official photographers sitting in our living rooms waiting to take those"candid" shots of our everyday life!!
Hi Fudd!
Is that why they kept on insisting she was UNDER COVER?
She is modeling her under bed covers wear.
