So, somebody correct me if i'm wrong here. Doesn't the fact that our administration can tap just about anybody they want to mean they could even wire tap, say, the Democratic Headquarters. Hmm. Wasn't Nixon quite nearly impeached for similar actions in the seventies? Tell me i'm not the first person to suggest this.

Illegal wiretapping was illegal in the seventies.

Of course Bush should wiretap the Democrats.

1) The Democrats are against the Bush administration (well, ostensibly anyway)

2) You're either with us or against us

Therefore the Democrats are enemies of America and must be stopped, no matter how many illegal wiretaps must be made, no matter how many CIA agents must be outed, no matter how many electoral machines must be rigged.

Bush is here to preserve democracy, not to practice it.

Simon, I think the actual quote was "you're either with us, or your with the enemy."

So yes, democrats are terrorists, but someone, maybe tony snow, said it anyway.

Already done, kids...

What, no one else remembers the quickly-buried news stories about the Repugs raiding the Dem's email servers not too long ago ?

Bloody hell, just google the phrase "Spying on Democrats" and you'll have enough reading material to keep you occupied for a damned long time.

And the only thing that's stopped is the media's interest and willingness to investigate, cause only an idiot would think they this crap has stopped after the repugs consolidated power.

Of COURSE they're spying on the Dems, it was good enough for Nixon, right ?
