Still the Worst President Ever
WASHINGTON, May 1 — Senior Bush administration officials told Congress on Tuesday that they could not pledge that the administration would continue to seek warrants from a secret court for a domestic wiretapping program, as it agreed to do in January.
Rather, they argued that the president had the constitutional authority to decide for himself whether to conduct surveillance without warrants.
As a result of the January agreement, the administration said that the National Security Agency’s domestic spying program has been brought under the legal structure laid out in the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, which requires court-approved warrants for the wiretapping of American citizens and others inside the United States.
But on Tuesday, the senior officials, including Michael McConnell, the new director of national intelligence, said they believed that the president still had the authority under Article II of the Constitution to once again order the N.S.A. to conduct surveillance inside the country without warrants.

Let's see...al Queda and other terrorist organizations, not to mention enemy countries of this nation, don't want the US to engage in intelligence gathering - and Spooky doesn't want the US to engage in intelligence gathering.
What do you think THAT shows?
Makes things pretty crystal clear to me.
Hey asshole-- where did I say I didn't want the US to engage in intelligence gathering???
That being said, the whole spying on al-CIA-duh thing is a bit of a joke. The spying without a warrant is really just a power play by Bushco to be able to spy on anyone they want without meaningful oversight.
@11:54 is a masterbaiter!
don't take the bait...
Touched a nerve there, I see. Good.
The truth is you can't really stand it when someone points out the bullshit you spew here and what it amounts to. Everything you advocate/say/preach/regurgitate/shit out here is something that any enemy of this country would echo loudly.
face it - you hate America and would like to see it erased from the face of the earth.
Attn: First SHILL to comment
There's no such thing as a terrorist organization called "al Queda" (or ever how you want to spell it).
You STILL don't know that?

what's up with this?
why is the right wing missing from some ua175s and the left wing missing from other ua175s?
maybe al qaeda didn't need a wing in order to fly around for over an hour (all the while unhindered by the mighty u.s. air defense) and then manage to slip thru the side of wtc2, defying physics like a ghost.
wow evil terror masterminds!
What missing wing?
It's there, even in the really bad, blown-up, pixelated crap.
The clear shots clearly show both wings. The blurry, fuzzy shots (aka your proof, how convenient), also show both wings, you just need to look harder.
""What missing wing?
you just need to look harder.""
ya right mencia!
Early Baby!
You need to pull your head out of your ass (where it is quite comfortable, no doubt - how the hell cna you walk around like that?). Denying the existance of Al Queda is no different than those lunatic moonbats who thought the solar system revolved around the earth.
Is that what you think, as well?
al quedo taco bell!

al Qaeda certainly DOES exist. It was created by the CIA as a database of mujahadeen fighters - hence the name al Qaeda - which means "The Base".
Are you saying that the CIA created a terrorist organization? If so, when did Osama's title change from CIA asset to "GW's 9/11 Pet Scapegoat"?
Attn: 10:06 Early Head up his ass!
Nope...the al-queda/CIA connection is something YOUR fervent mind, no doubt sparked on by the wonderful aroma of your rectum, came up with.
Funny how the CIA is the source of all galactic evil - I though Chimpy McHitler had that title!
Make up your fucking mind, Early Baby! Is all this CIA or Bush's fault!!!!
You Spooky Toe Suckers and idiots (but I repeat myself) are all over the map on this whole thing.
Nukes?
Space-based laser beams?
Thermite?
Explosives?
No planes?
Planes but not airliners?
Not planes but drones?
No planes but holograms?
I'm not certain you clowns know WHAT the hell you believe! You'll jump on the NEXT thing that comes along, as long as it makes Chimpy look bad and casts the US in the absolute worst light possible.
an aluminum airplane with a plastic nosecone, no matter whether the biggest or the smallest of planes, cannot penetrate a steel/concrete wtc no matter how fast it was claimed to be going.
every single one of the media images of ua175 were phony.

anon@11:54, 4:30, 5:49, 9:09, 11:28 are all SPOOKS...people, it's pretty clear who the disinfo agents on these blogs are--they spew hatred for 9-11 research and ALWAYS toe the line for the US...they are spineless jellyfish...if they want an information war, fine...in order for the S-11 Psy-Op to be successful, they need to perpetuate the cover-up, using propaganda, disinfo, tactical deception...these are clear signs of military and counter-intelligence...we KNOW who the PERPS are...
