if Clinton were doing this exact thing under the exact same circumstances, I just know we'd be completely outraged.

If Clinton was doing the exact same thing against a foreign foe who had killed 3000 American Civilians, we would be cheering him. The problem is, while putting up the sanctimonious Gorlic wall between Intelligence and Law enforcement agencies, the Clinton Admin used all sorts of strong arm tactics against it's domestic political opposition. Read the Barret Report when it comes out. The opposition to Clinton was based on his complete failure to do the things he WAS SUPPOSE to be doing to protect the Country.

Please quit confusing your feelings for Clinton with facts.

Yeah right. Cheering him.

Son, it's you who doesn't have his facts completely right. No one, not even liberals, are disturbed by the U.S. spying on foreign foes.

Where any anti-government Conservative should be a little alarmed is with the fact that warrantless spying is being done on American citizens, despite the fact that warrants can easily be obtained from the secret court 72 hours after the executive order is issued.

I don't care who the President is, unchecked executive authority to me is unAmerican. I give President Bush the benefit of the doubt, but explanations need to be made. I love him, but he's not a King.

And let me tell you, there is not one Conservative who would be (or should be) comfortable with the likes of Bill Clinton ordering warrantless searches on any citizen...you know it, and I know it.
