It was claimed, on the senate floor, that the constitution does not provide for the President to spy on his own people, and that this is not cover by the patriot act either, that what Bush has done is criminal.
I hope someone finally stands up and has Bush arrested on criminal charges. Impeachment is not enough! I beleive the question is not if Bush is guilty, but should Chaney be charged too. We have been lied to long enough. Our leaders are self-serving, self-centered, money hungry, War and Oil mongers. It is sad that I should actually be concerned with writting these words. I Am an American and my opinion is given to me by the freedom of speech provided by our country. Yet I sit here, with reservations concerning these words, wondering if this forum is part of said spy program. Should I have to worry? Not if this country is still this country. Don't let Bush make this country a democratic dictatorship. Speak up and write your Reps and Senators!! Our right to freedom of speech is under direct threat from our own President.
How sad is that?

No kidding man. I also wonder if the powers at be will strike at any comments made in a forum like this.

What bugs me about the President is that he doesn't even seem sorry that he has been doing these illegal things.... he was just sorry that it had been leaked.

There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond. Conservatives are simply roadblocks on the path to an ever more progressive and liberal world. What a sad existence.
