Attorney General Alberto Gonzales made clear Wednesday that the White House is not seeking congressional action to inscribe the National Security Agency’s monitoring into U.S. law, even as members of Congress negotiate with the Bush administration about legislation.
See what happens when you try to give a little to our spoiled prez? He doesn’t need your help, spineless congress people’s. Here you are causing an uproar and still it won’t make a difference.
Specter was also critical of a terrorist surveillance bill soon to be introduced by Sen. Mike DeWine, R-Ohio, and other moderate lawmakers that would allow the government to monitor the international calls of U.S. residents for 45 days without a warrant. The White House has called that approach a “generally sound measure.”
Yes, sound. However, they don’t need it. Haven’t they made it perfectly clear that the president doesn’t have to follow the law? So making more laws for him not to follow is just plain silly. It’s a good thing that Bush has Gonzales, otherwise he might think that he really does need Congressional approval to illegally spy on Americans.
As far as this…
“There’s a general consensus – quite frankly – that this is a needed program” designed to listen to al-Qaeda’s communications, Gonzales told the National Association of Attorneys General Wednesday. “The concern I think that people have, which is a natural concern, is that, is this a limited program?”
Well, I’ve already made my opinion clear on that. They don’t need this program to spy on al-Qaeda. They need this program to keep Congress in line.
We don’t need no stinking law
