Problem is, boohoo-zer, is that we don't know if Bush was listening in to folks of Arab descent talking overseas with terrorists or listening to so Quaker group planing an anti-war rally...

Back in the 60's and early 70's the FBI kept dosiers on millions of folks who just happened to be against the Vietnem War... Heck, I know for a fact they had one one me... Might of fact, I even know the two FBI agents who did all the snooping and somewhere have a picture of them... Back then we just figured that's the way things are...

But now, given a little age and wisdom on my part I'm thinking, "Nah, that ain't what the Founding Fathers had in mind" and so when FISA came into existence there were a lot of us who rully understood that casual snooping on American citizens isn't what thwe Foundign Fathers had in mind at all...

Since FISA I think America has been closer to the ideals of Tom Jefferson in safe-guarding the elements necessary for a democratic expierement to continue...

Democracy, as s system of governemnt, is fragile and if we wish to showcase it to the rest iof the world it is very important that we don't let ***any*** executive centralize power... This is waht the War for Independence was about...

Bush has stepped further toward cenralization of power than any president I can think of in American history... Yeah, the US has had powerful presidents and great leaders in it 230 plus years but none who is so power hungry as Bush...

If anyone can think of any president that was more power hungry, please feel free to bring that individual up...

I mean, even LBJ undeestood that he was going to have to work his magic on the Congress and did so very well... But LBJ, other than possibly being involved in the ZKennedy assasination, didn't go breaking the laws that Bush has broken here...

Time to impeach and let Congress sort out the details...
