#1 CHarles Krauthammer on FNC said it dead on, i.e. that most Americans understand that America's survival and identity is at stake, and they are more than willing to tolerate Dubya's and the NSA's actions iff it means victory andor security over an enemy. Krauthammer also made the point that during WW2, the Govt's interventions/restrictions ags individual rights were far more intrusive and pervasive than today's WOT, and that FEW IFF ANY AMER POLS OR VOTERS EVER COMPLAINED ABOUT ANYTHING - e.g. putting Japanese in relocation camps after Pearl Harbor, or the Army executing Nazi saboteurs without civilian habeas corpus!? Amers in both WW1 and WW2 put up with martial laws,nationwide drafts of young men, limitations of civil rights, and universal consumer shortages, etc. because America was at war and Americans wanted to win the war(s). In legend, wid the MANHATTAN PROJECT Amer corporations pledged to build any and all the necessary facilities and components for nuke bombs for the total sum profit of ONE US DOLLAR. The Dems got nuthin' now except waiting for American Hiroshimas/new 9-11's and pretending vv the MSM that 9-11 was about ONLY Radical Islam, NOT saving and forcing knowingly failed anti-US American Socialism and anti-US OWG/SWO on an unsuspecting America, where Saving America = destroying America = creating Amerika. Americans must pay for the bulk of future International and Global taxation whilst NOT being allowed to govern or dominate the global empire its warriors are fighting and dying for in the ME. The Left > Americans are not allowed to govern our own nation anymore, by and for ourselves, because of our many, innumerable "errors in judgement" = willful warmongering imperialist ways and foreign policies = Americans demand to be ruled by non-Americans and anti-Americans anyway. NOTHING SAYS PROSPEROUS UNIVERSALIST LAISSEZ FAIRE GLOBAL UTOPIA THAN THE TRAGIC BUT NECESSARY, SOCIALIST STATE-PLANNED, HOLOCAUST AND EXTERMINATION OF 200 MILYUHN AMERICAN CITIZENS; NOR 5-1/2 BILYUHN OF THE WORLD'S 6.0BILYUHN, both +/-, AFTER THAT. American Holocaust is good for America, the enviro, and for Globalism and Socialism, etc. True Hyper-correct Clintonian Fascist = Communist, Socialists = Capitalists, Cops/Judges/Law = Mafiosi, Laissez Faire = Regulation-Absolutism, American Army = Red Army,...........................@ Patriotskis demand to be suppressed and repressed, and sent to the re-education or death camps by our own Government anyways, you lucky winner dogs you!?

#4 "A president who breaks the law is a threat to the very structure of our government," he said.

Huh.

I seem to recall Gore stood beside Clinton despite Clinton's having been proven to have broken the law. That Gore stayed in an administration that used the IRS to punish critics, wiretapped political rivals, and went through their FBI files. That Gore himself wanted to be president despite his own role in raising bribes campaign funds from foreign powers.

What an ass.

#5 There was no controlling authority, as I recall Gorebot's own words.

#6 Bush should've drank large amounts of ice tea and been in the can taking a leak when decisions like these were made. I think that was somebody else's excuse awhile back.

#7 I guess he forgot all about his former support for the Clipper chip.

#8 Not too long ago I was totally against holding hearings about NSA and other issues, but now I say “ Full steam ahead.” Hold it in the Judiciary committee and subpoena every left-wing nut ball from around the globe. Given their recent show during the Alito hearings I know the Democrats would rise to the occasion. Imagine if you will a full-fledged circus every day in the Senate and every evening the Democrat leaders have to disavow every screwball conspiracy that was testified to during the day. Jon Stewart would have to make his show an hour long just to keep up with the material! Have these hearings (rants) continue through the election cycle and I doubt there would be many voters that would trust the Democrats with anything above trash collector. Just my two cents and a suggestion to the dark overlord (Rove).

#9 Actually, I'd love both Al Gore and John Kerry to challenge the Hilldebeast in mid 2007 for 2008.

The only things saving the Dems from a 400+ electoral college defeat are:

- most voters don't pay attention to politics until the year before the Prez election and thus don't know how insane the Dems have become

- the MSM agiprop machine can still deliver about 5-10% of the vote to the Dems

- the felon, illegal immigrant and deceased vote is about another 1% of the dem vote

#12 I'm waiting for him to start talking about the aura that surrounded him when talking.

#13 stench, not aura

#14 Nope, "aura". It's a side effect of the reality distortion field.
