Your are right, just the original checks and balances. Even a judicial warrant saying all calls from known or suspected Al Queda (sp) to and from the US. No problem, all I asked for was checks and balances.

Has another president had this type of oversight...who cares. Just because the wrong thing is done over and over doesn't make it right or the law. It is right and proper for the checks and balances. If we missed it before, lets clean it up before it gets worse.

I do.

The bottom line, I think this is one of the first president in a long time that really thinks about checks and balances.

I would like to know two things. 1) Bush said the interceptions were made outside of our country , Does this mean our law cannot be broken because we have no jurisdiction outside of our boundaries? 2) When did enemy agents become protected ny our Constitution , aren't they covered by the Geneva Convention?
