This article ran in the Hutchinson News on the 8-15-07. I get very angry at how the Dems try to tie the Presidents hand, in the work he has done to keep us safe since 9-11. They would do anything just so they can one up our President, and instead it shows just how small and desperate they are.Read on-
What in the world can the Democrats be thinking of, except their own power! We are in a war of survival, not just to win but to keep all of us safe.
President Bush implemented the Terrorist Surveillance Program after 9/11. The Democrats were well aware of the program, they had been briefed from the begining. When The New York Times exposed the TSP, the Democrats acted outraged-acted is the only word to describe their actions. They knew of the program for six years, but said nothing.
Now, secretly listening to enemy phone calls, reading their faxes, e-mails and text messages, the full data-mining needed to keep us safe, is only one-third as good as it was before January 2007.
The senatorial venom directed at Attorney General Albert Gonzales is nothing but vicious political theater at the lowest rung of the ladder. He is trying to keep intact what is left of the TSP to protect the U.S. citizens, which ovbiously is not what the Democrats want. They want a trophy, no matter what it takes. Under Clinton, the "wall" was put in effect. No sharing information between agencies right here in the United States. Who did that protect:crooks, criminals, low-life and, of course , terrorists.
The programs President Bush implemented to protect us are in danger. Why? Who are the Democrats trying to protect? Who will they point their finger at if and when something happens? Their reach for power has blinded them to what is needed for America. Control over the enemy, who wants to kill all infidels, which will include Democrats.
Note
Just this last week , June 08 they finally passed the bill in the House, but the Senate is still griping, they don't want the telacoms protected. I just wonder if that has anything to do with the fact they are in bed with lawyers who like to sue everybody, I would guess that has a lot to do with their gripe. Afriad the lawyers might not give so freely, if they thought the Dems didn't help them in every way.
