Mr Bush really is just wanting to protect his big money friends from being sued for breaking the law at the time.

You mean like AT&T?

Go see who the top doners to the dem party are and see who's on the list.

Also, the same case can be made for the dems and the trial lawyers. All they want is to feed the plaintiffs bar.

Then, go read the Constitution and tell me where, in the age we're living, is the expectation of privacy, in electronic communicationS.

Some of us see lawsuits as the secret tax on society that they are. A law specifying limits serves everyone. Why is Bush to blame for that? How does it serve us to serve lawyers, and not the law?

Matt, you need to start doing your own thinking.

The Republicans seem to think that listening in on folks conversations is OK.

The Democrats seem to think so too, as long as the persons eavesdropped on can sue the phone companies.

We are sure fortunate to have such persons making laws in this country.

SP4: The ProblemMar 14th, 2008 - 17:34:12

...is that not enough citizens are dying. Once you let terrorists kill a few folks, like a few thousand, the attitude will change from the cake-and-ice-cream privacy perception to the-Constitution-is-not-a-suicide pact, attitude.

It's a pity folks must die to get there, but there it is. After all, Congress is a body that let slavery run for 90 years and we had to have a civil war to settle the question.

I do hope that you are one of those to die. Anything, to get your small minded, drug induced, claptrap silenced.

Because GWB is the 'rethinker'? Tell this idiot to go back to Texas and live his life knowing the fact that he is by far the worst President in history---hands down. This guy makes Jimmy Carter look like a genius.

SP4: Yeah, Carter...let's compareMar 15th, 2008 - 14:33:24

Carter - 20% interest rates - Bush, single digits

Carter - 13% inflation - Bush,....less than 4%

Carter - wage and price controls - Bush, free market winner


Carter - Gave away Panama Canal - Bush, so far, no giveaways

Carter - pissed on by the Iranians for 444 days - Bush, threatening to kick their asses

Carter - pissed on by Russians in Afghanistan - Bush, kicking ass in Afghanistan

Carter - drummed out in one term - Bush, beat so called :intellectual' talking heads both times.


This being the case Mr. (im)ppppppppperfect, I think you've been exposed as being just a little-more-than-full-of-sh-t!

'Carter - 20% interest rates - Bush, single digits'

Single digits only because they have no where else to go. The economy is tanking like no other time in modern history, gas if $4.00 a gallon due to the fact that GWB and his boys have done so much damage to the dollar (and of course we know that oil is bought in dollars---less value more cost).

'Carter - 13% inflation - Bush,....less than 4%'

Just wait, food prices skyrocketing, gas prices skyrocketing, etc.

'Carter - wage and price controls - Bush, free market winner'

Free market is working real well, we are tanking idiot due to this type of crap. Oil companies are recording record profits, gas prices $4.00 per gallon. Hum????

'Carter - Gave away Panama Canal - Bush, so far, no giveaways'

Read the contract, it was past time to give it back as per the original contract!

'Carter - pissed on by the Iranians for 444 days - Bush, threatening to kick their asses'

Carter lost less than 25 troops, Bush has lost 4,000 and 25,000 injured---for nothing!

'Carter - pissed on by Russians in Afghanistan - Bush, kicking ass in Afghanistan'

Sorry your revision of history is a bit off. While the move into Afghanistan was the correct move, your boys the GWB administration took their eye off the ball. Why are we still there, we could have leveled the country and have been out of their---now we have created the biggest financial support for Al Queda and the boys by letting them grow the poppies and make the best heroin in the world---smooth move.

'Carter - drummed out in one term - Bush, beat so called :intellectual' talking heads both times.'

History will show that he stole the first election and cheated his way into the second. No matter he will be regarded as the worst in history including President Carter.

Tell all of this crap to those who do not have a job, those who do not have health benefits, those what cannot afford gas, those that work for $7.00 an hour and when this idiot (GWB) took over they were making $21.00 an hour, so in fact it is you that more than 'full-of-shi-, and as usual you are wrong.
