Ok, so the Times writes a story that says that the NSA is spying on Americans without a warrant. And Bush, instead of denying it, comes out hitting on all cylinders saying that, even though he could have easily gotten a warrant that he just didn't want to. So the ACLU, noting the obvious, copious, and acknowledged violations of the 4th amendment, start their investigations, good.
Now, amazingly, we have people coming out and saying that the ACLU is somehow sabotaging the NSA's counterterrorism progam? How is that again? So Bush illegally asks the NSA to wiretap, when he very easily could have done it legally. And now asking the NSA for the names of the people tapped is somehow hurting our national secuity?
These people are amazing. The skewed, twisting, insano pretzeloid logic it takes to get from Bush performing impeachable actions, to fighting the ACLU because he didn't spy on us enough. It's nut. You have to wonder what these people would have said during Watergate; "Clearly the problem was that Nixon didn't spy enough! He should spy more. We want to be spied on. All the time. Like Big Brother. We love and trust the government so much that we want it watching our every move."
These people are like lemmings. They can't find a way to hurt themselves fast enough.
