Bush is the one who let Osama Bin Laden go, ignored the 8-6 warning about 9-11, said he didn't care about Osama anymore, said the war on terror could not be won, moved our counter-terror assets from Afghanistan (where al Qaida was) to Iraq (where no one from Al Qaida was), lied about why he was doing it, then invited Jihadists in to attack US troops.

Kerry has one way of dealing with terrorists, just find them
and kill them. Period. But that takes good intel and cooperation with other countries.

Illegal surveillance on Americans by the president is a crime. The FISA court was set up to handle all counter-terrorism situations which could possibly come up, and Bushies are just plain lying on this subject to try and cover up for Bush so be won't get impeached for it. Also, Bush could very well be abusing these powers to spy on domestic opponents, including the opponents of corporate pals like Exxon. We already know he's set the FBI on harmless peace groups. Rumsfield's DOD intelligence is also surveiling anti-war groups. This is a violation of the Constitution and an abuse of power far beyond anything Nixon was guilty of. Who knows how far-reaching it is. And when you add in ther Dark Lord Dick Cheney, you REALLY can't trust what they're doing with it. I would not put anything past Cheney.
