Don't get me wrong here; I understand the wiretaps and why they must be done. HOWEVER, I have serious problems with this whole scenario:

"Now, by the way, any time you hear the United States government talking about wiretap, it requires -- a wiretap requires a court order. Nothing has changed, by the way. When we're talking about chasing down terrorists, we're talking about getting a court order before we do so."

I HAVE A SERIOUS PROBLEM WHERE HE SAYS SPECIFICALLY HE WILL ABIDE BY THE LAW AND THEN A YEAR LATER ADMITS TO ILLEGALLY WIRETAPPING WITHOUT WARRANTS.

NOBODY IS AGAINST THE LAW, AND THAT INCLUDES THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. HE IS NOT A KING. HE MUST ABIDE BY THE LAW AND IF HE WANTS TO GET WARRANTS TO WIRETAP, FINE. IT CAN BE DONE IN LESS THAN 10 SECONDS. BUT NOBODY IS ABOVE THE LAW, AND GEORGE W. BUSH NEEDS TO BE PUT IN HIS PLACE.

I agree with you, without reservations. But my reason for responding is to ask whether or not you have a bonified link to those statements?? (not doubting you, I have other reasons)
