Now this?
So now they're saying the NSA has a massive "secret database" of everyone's phone calls in an effort "to build a database of all calls within the country"? I don't know about you, and Les, you may differ, but to me that just feels weird.
Bush said, "the privacy of ordinary Americans is fiercely protected in all our activities." I guess he meant "fierce," as in a lion protecting a lamb.

It looks like Bush is going to stampede over personal freedom in the name of 9/11. This is something Stalin or Lenin or the worst dictators in history would do. Suddenly we're living in Russia in the 1950's in a communist state. It's George Orwell's 1984 come to life, courtesy of Dubya. He'll break the law to fight the 'evildoers', meaning 'us'. He just doesn't give a damn anymore. Or did he ever? Republicans as usual will roll over and play dead in the presence of our illegitimate leader.
George Bush couldn't find WMDs in Iraq, but he likes the war anyway. He probably hasn't found too many al-Qaida operatives by secretly collecting phone records on millions of Americans, either. But, hey, he likes having a look. You don't mind, do you? The motto of this White House: "Warrants? We don't need no stinking warrants!"
