Its not just the left... I’m not thrilled about wiretapping citizens without warrants except in some extraordinary time sensitive situations.

Trusting President Bush43 is not the same as saying no future administration will abuse this.

So never mind.....

The Left wants this power for themselves, not for a Republican administration.

Everything will be okay now. Move along.

The timing is perfect...right before the coronation.

The more Obama changes things the more they remain the same Its a terrible shame he had to make all this stuff up against Bush and try to divide the country in order to vote for him and now when he is President he will do nothing different, he may just Communicate it better.

So they aren’t ever going to say Bush was right.... they will triangualte the issue to try and appease all sides and his base will never hold him accountable and even if they try to the media will shut them down.

But I just heard last night on NPR that it not only is illegal, it’s unconstitutional and immoral and impacts women and minorities the hardest.

Unbelievable. After all the Bushitler crap, Bush was right on this AND he was right on the surge. Please point me to DUmmie thread as soon as they find out about this. It should be hilarious!

I’d like to see the details, though. I’m fine with it being on terrorists and worded for that...but I don’t want it to be blanketed.

Well, already Obama’s regime is happily being endorsed.

I hope they’re the first ones to get the brunt of it.

The program in question was always tracking international calls where one party is a suspected terrorist.

Calling it "Domestic Spying" was one of the most dishonest uses of rhetoric ever. The media consistently used it and let politicians get away with using it unchallenged. The program's owner pointed out he had never gotten on a "domestic" flight and arrived in Pakistan or Afghanistan. It's like calling milk an "alcoholic beverage" so you can restrict its sales to minors.

Let me pause everyone here for a moment:

"... A federal intelligence court, in a rare public opinion, is expected to issue a major ruling"

Federal Intelligence Court?

Um, what?

Someone better hip me to the jive in this new Federal lingo, because I have never heard of 'Federal Intelligence Court' before. Sounds like something you don't want to get dragged in front of. What's this all about? Is this something I missed in the Patriot Act?

Here are my thoughts on this subject.

The coincidental timing of this ruling is something I find both very odd and very troubling.

Apparently the vibe I'm getting from these bureaucrats is it's not OK for a Republican President to spy of foreign terrorists but it's OK for a Democrat President to spy on his political opponents and adversaries.

This kind of mindset is why people like myself are hunkering down and loading up on ammunition. It seems to me the Demorats have a different idea of what a terrorist is than the Republicans.

The Dems have been well known for their notion of self serving paranoria. Anything or anyone who writes or says anything negative of them or their favored groups is considered a threat to National Security.

All I can say is we conservatives had best watch our backs and keep our powders dry. I'm not real sure what Hussien has in store for how he wants to use these wiretapping powers. If he wants to use them to spy on his political opponents and adversaries or what.

Regards......
