Well, you can allow Al Qaeda to cut off your head if you want. I am concerned about my grandchildren, and am not willing to sacrifice them on the altar of your "rights."

Frankly, whether President Bush does this or not doesn't really matter if someone like Hillary Clinton is elected. Do you think she would obey a court ruling? Do you think the press would castigate her for violating citizen rights? Nope. Whether President Bush does this or not, if elected, she will do what she damn well pleases, and ignore the niceties of the Constitution, just like her husband did.

So, since it doesn't matter what precedents President Bush sets, I favor giving him the right to listen in on these calls. In fact, he can listen in on my calls to my daughter, in which we discuss whether or not we will meet for lunch tomorrow. I don't care.

Granting Bush this right does not affect what will happen in the future, except for protecting the nation while he is in office.

Now I must go watch my grandchildren. Any replies from me will be after 6PM Eastern.

Well, that's you. I don't want him listening to mine.
