I thought what we wanted was a more compassionate war on terror, more UN resolutions, Hillary-Care socialized medicine, Kyoto restrictions on CO2, and two more terms of Bill Clinton as president. Or so the press would have us believe.

I know. Now it appears that they've added "Bush's" before Wiretapping Bill in the title. Of course, they don't want to get things right.

"WASHINGTON - The House approved a bill Thursday giving legal status to President Bush's warrantless wiretapping program with restrictions." I'd like to see a summary of the language of the bill. If they screwed up we all may have to get 'throw away' cell phones for making plans for who's bringing the beer for Sunday tailgate football parties lol.

Strange post for a n00b.
This has nothing to do with the alien invasion issue.
