Stop confusing the drive-by spin plans with facts, Americans are outraged at GWB all the time, I know I read it in the NYT and hear it on CNN don'tcha just know.
Seriously, Fox should put John Gibson at prime-time.[fox received around 33000 mail for this, mostly +ve]
The Washington Post did a snap poll Thursday night to determine if Americans are upset about the president and the National Security Agency keeping a data bank of our phone records what number was used to call what other number. The short story: Americans are overwhelming OK with it.
But The Post was asking the wrong question.
In this case, it also needs to be asked:
Are you OK with someone at the NSA leaking this information to reporters?
Are you OK with secret methods being used to try to catch Al Qaeda being revealed not only to the American public, but also to Al Qaeda themselves?
Are you OK with NSA employees being so ticked off at the president they would release information that helps the very people who are trying to kill you?
Are you OK with national security issues being treated as the raw material for Pulitzer prizes for ambitious reporters?
Are you OK with Al Qaeda only having to subscribe to The New York Times and The Washington Post to learn how America's spies are trying to track them down?
Are you OK with reporters being more concerned about Pulitzer prizes than whether you or I blow up?
........Leakers of this sort are criminals who should be in jail. And the reporters who use secrets to win Pulitzers are putting our lives in danger. Remember: These are the same people who want someone in jail for outing Valerie Plame. Where are they now?
The reported GWBush proposal to put guard without a true fence is 100% BS to pacify the voting public.
Without a wall all reform is useless.
