Because going around the court when it denied your requests isn't exactly a stirring defense. Regardless of how justified it may have been. We always must remember that it's Bush today, Hillary tomorrow.

I miss the days of a Clinton presidency, when FReepers challenged the extent of executive power.

Unfortunately, it is going to take a Hillary Clinton for some FReepers to snap out of it and start bemoaning this nonsense.

It's more like it's going to take a nuclear attack on a US city, before some people realize that the danger IS REAL.

Let me tell you something. If Bill Clinton, as president, were spying on Al Qaeda, I'd support him completely.

Thank you for saving the Constitution by supporting the rights of terrorists, here and abroad, to speak freely with no risk that the government will listen in. Bravo!!

I guess the truth of the matter is that politics in the US today is nothing more than a competition for what kind of dictatorship we'll have - a left-wing one or a right-wing one.

There's a war on.

Your response sounds just like you're shooting for a position on the FISA court.
