Blah, I'm tired of blogging about the wiretapping junk, but I still have more to say. I know I came off sounding like a complete right-wing robot, so I just wanted to say that while I find what is going so far to be within the bounds of acceptable behavior in wartime, especially with such a geographically diverse enemy, some of whom live here. But, and that's a big BUT, I do have a line, and just about anything more would be perilously close to being on the other side of that line. Bush has a funny way of doing that, getting close to that line on a number of issues and then pulling back. And the Medicare drug thing is definitely on the wrong side of the line, but for now there are more important issues, and a McCain presidency coming up in a few years. I'd actually prefer Lieberman, though I don't remember the details of any of their previous campaigns.
-I think we'd be naive to think that some part of our intelligence apparatus, the with or without Bush's knowledge, wouldn't continue to do something like the wiretapping no matter what.

I'm with you. As long as it is limited to terrorists, I don't mind the wire tapping. But if I find out Bush is wiretapping Harry Reid and Hillary Clinton, then I have a real problem with it.
Interesting how conspicuously silent the libs are on Kennedy's wiretapping of Martin Luther King. I suppose spying on civil rights leaders is ok, but spying on radical islamic terrorists is not.
