So it looks like the lefty press has found their "Respected Elder Statesman" replacement when Jimmy kicks.
Wonder which dictator Daschle will cuddle up to first on the road to his Tookie (aka The Nobel Peace Prize)?

Ah, I remember this guy. Amazing how quickly he faded after being such a nuisance. Dingy Harry is no better, however.

Actually, I think that during WWII no one ever seriously challenged the President's authority to -- well-- do whatever he thought was right like, for example, interning millions of American citizens in camps based on their ancestry. Now, let's see, what's more invasive of my rights? Eavesdropping ? Internment? Hmmmmm.

Wrong Dakota. Little Tommy would be employed by the Aberdeen 7-Eleven.
No, he has been kicked out of South Dakota furthering his humiliation.

Fine. Now I have a good idea. President Bush can sign an executive order refusing to allow the Senate to filibuster.

Well, he's been hanging out in Iowa -- along with Kerry and a half-dozen others, one thing I read on Drudge is he's been there more than anyone because he has so much time on his hand these days ~LOL~

It's very interesting that Daschle has indicated that he was for violating the constitution by restricting the Presidential Constitutional Obligations to protect Americans from enemies foreign and domestic.

So let me get this straight: After 9-11, the first time we've been attacked in what everyone agrees is a new kind of war, the democrats explicitly denied the President the ability to fight that war in a new way, and wanted him to fight it as he would WW2, for example? Seems like the murder of 3,0000 citizens mean nothing to them
Congressmen Dingle is on FNC at the moment agreeing with Dashole and saying the WH should hand over documents of these taps so they can see them

To: West Coast Conservative
So, what Tiny Tommy is claiming is that the Dims thought this whole thing through, and purposely, intentionally decided that the Commander in Chief should not have the power to protect Americans from terrorists and terrorist sympathizers entrenched inside the USA?
Please let that be what he's saying. If so, the Republicans will gain super-majority status in short order.

Yesterday's letter, signed by Assistant Attorney General William Moschella, asserted that Congress implicitly created an exception to FISA's warrant requirement by authorizing President Bush to use military force in response to the destruction of the World Trade Center and a wing of the Pentagon. The congressional resolution of Sept. 18, 2001, formally titled "Authorization for the Use of Military Force," made no reference to surveillance or to the president's intelligence-gathering powers, and the Bush administration made no public claim of new authority until news accounts disclosed the secret NSA operation. So, you were okay with authorizing the President to kill suspected Al Qaida members, but you're not okay with wiretap ping their phones?
Intelligence collection is an integral part of 'using military force'. That would be like saying, 'We only authorized the President to kill Al Qaida members, so long as they don't find out who the are first'.

The post has been very heavy handed lately. All they is report false charges by democrats anymore.

That was a calculated attempt to make the President liable for any further acts of terrorism.
Ann said it best:
Any CIC who DID NOT do anything and everything, including eavesdropping on phone calls, would have been impeached for derliction of duty.
The dims have a sutble way of making everything a double-edge..Ignore their vote, and he's a villian out to strip every Constitutional protection ever written.
These a$$holes are out to get the President, and they will sacrifice our security to do it.
They will get everyone of us killed before this is over.

They don't give the CIC the powers he needs, but if he abides by their vote, he's failed to keep Americans safe.

Physical and mental runts are allowed opinions and opinions are not facts. Little Tommie, whose wife was on the lobbyist gravy train all the time he was in the Senate has no credibility on any matters other than knowing where the nearest restroom happens to be.
