Gonzales: Some Congressmen hav esuggested they didn't mean the force resolution to authorize wiretaps. We are a nation governed by written laws, not the intention of laws.
In this case, those plain words could not be clearer. The force resolution did not limit the president from using some tactics against AQ.
Nor did the resolution force the president to only fight AQ in other countries. The resolution mentions fighting at home as well as abroad.
After this if Bush sends up Gonzalez for a SCOTUS vacancy the Senate 'rats will go nuts.
