Secret Wire Tapping of U.S. Citizens...
My opinion...
From the NY Times...
WASHINGTON, Dec. 15 - "Months after the Sept. 11 attacks, President Bush secretly authorized the National Security Agency to eavesdrop on Americans and others inside the United States to search for evidence of terrorist activity without the court-approved warrants ordinarily required for domestic spying, according to government officials."
I said in another thread that, unfortunately, I just don't trust President Bush.
In threads long ago, I worried about government spying on domestic groups who might have any kind of leanings against the war in Iraq. That happened during Vietnam, I said.
I worried then, and still do, about some powers of the Patriot Act that seem to me (certainly not a Constitutional Scholar) to be an infringement of our personal rights.
I think The President badly misuses the power of his office.
What will it take for everyone to see that?
Or does it take the hindsight of having seen it happen before?
