PRESIDENTIAL WIRE TAPS ARE LEGAL FOR NATIONAL SECURITY

"1) Notwithstanding any other law, the President, through the Attorney General, may authorize electronic surveillance without a court order under this subchapter to acquire foreign intelligence information for periods of up to one year if the Attorney General certifies in writing under oath." This is a direct quote from the 1978 Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act subchapter 1 section 1802. I am not a legal scholar and do not nor ever will claim to be, but with a little Google search I found the provision that allows the President of the United States to authorize legal wire taps for foreign surveillance against anyone suspected of harming the national security of the nation. I don't know about you but I believe that anyone associated with Al Qaeda falls into this category which is exactly what the President stated in yesterdays news conference. Yet the New York Times and the liberal meatheads in the Senate and House namely Harry Reid, Dianne Fienstien, Barbara Boxer and Nancy Pelosi, with better access to US provisions than I can EVER have, claim that the President admitted to an impeachable offense in his wire tap statement and are now pushing for an investigation and articles of impeachment against Bush. When will these ridiculous imbeciles realize that these blatant attacks on the President to destroy his Presidency threaten our national security and aid and comfort the enemy. A blind man can see through their partisan attacks and the true reason for them yet they persist. One can only determine that they do not care for this nation, its security, winning the war or for the very people that they claim to represent. Just last week the House voted on a bill that stated that the House of Representatives would unite together and stand FOR victory in Iraq. 108 DEMOCRATS VOTED AGAINST THE BILL, thus indicating that they favored defeat rather than victory. This bill had no other provisions or wording other than backing victory ! The recent large gains in the President's approval rating proves that the American people are not falling for this disgusting liberal attack and campaign of deception. If the left thinks that this type of , "politics, " will gain the House and Senate in 2006 they are sadly mistaken. My conservative values and Republicanism says, "keep it up libs," but my patriotism and love for this country fears the repercussions from an enemy that thrives on this type of rhetoric and the damage that it is and will continue to cause our troops and our country!
