Who's on the List of potential American Terrorists, pray tell.

Could any of Bush's political enemies be on the list? If so, it's no different than Watergate, just worse. Why break in, when you can just listen in.

They certainly have accused their political opponents of supporting terrorists.

Even if they have not been spying on their political "enemies", it's just more McCarthyism and American Executive power at it's worst.

4. My thought precisely. Reading Mao for his undergrad term paper

and having spent one semester or so abroad, which all universities encourage, definitely makes him a PRIME SUSPECT! Hell, reading alone already makes him a potentially subversive terrorist material. I wonder if they checked whether he read Darwin to boot!

3. It's settled law; executive must have judicial authorization to wiretap.

"The Keith Case," U.S. District Court decision upheld by unanimous U.S. Supreme Court. But, Bush doesn't care about that. After all, there are dangerous terrorists everywhere, even as close as Canada, to use as justification for imperiling Constitutional rights.
