Bon soir, my friends. One last question: has
Bill or Hillary weighed in on the spying that has been done?
Second question: has Liebermann?
They are all Dems, so I'm all atwitter with wonder.
Sweet dreams, and I can't wait to be rewarded with new info!

Experts debate domestic spying
By Fred Lucas

THE NEWS-TIMES
Even Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman, considered the administration's chief Democratic ally on the war on terror, doesn't like President Bush's order that allows spies to listen to phone calls and e-mails of U.S. citizens.

Lieberman weighed in Monday on a national controversy that has provoked mixed opinion among the legal community in Connecticut.

The problem, Lieberman said, is that the president didn't follow existing law.

Lieberman said he wants to know why Bush did not use the authority he has under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, which allows domestic spying if it is approved by a court.

"I still have not heard the argument as to why that step, provided by law, has not been taken," Lieberman said at a news conference in Washington. "If for some reason it is thought to be too burdensome, well, then the administration should come to us and make that case."

3. Don’t know, but my prediction is…
Bill is too busy brown nosing with Bush Sr for a Carlyle Group position and can’t comment.

Hil and Joe can’t go on record against it because it would destroy their (Zionist) base. That’s all they have left since they still refuse to admit that they made a mistake in voting for the false invasion of Iraq. Plus, if Joe is going to replace Rummie, he’ll want the “off the book” advantage for wiretaps in defense of his people. Never mind that over 2000 troops have died in response to a lie.

Fuck them all. I’m finally going Green when I have the choice.
