THE SYSTEM COULD be potentially be used for surveillance of Internet users, the Times said.

The Bush administration plans to submit the proposal in a report, “The National Strategy to Secure Cyberspace,” which will be released early next year, the newspaper said, citing several people who have been briefed on the report.

It's amazing, but this guy will be almost as bad as Clinton by the time it's all said and done. What irony. I voted for him because I hated Clinton's policies. At least one good thing has come of this. I saw that the Republican party and their small, nonintrusive government government mantra was all lies. What's more amazing is that some freepers will defend this policy.

He will continue to get a free pass from some of the Bush-bots here no matter what he does.
