These 3 gentlemen were on the radio this morning. Not a liberal – or even a moderate - among them.

Bruce Fein, former associate deputy attorney general, Republican counsel during the Iran-contra hearings, … David Keene, chairman of the American Conservative Union ….Norman Ornstein, resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute…

Essentially they agreed that the NSA wiretapping was blatantly illegal – and dangerous – and to varying degrees said if the President doesn’t back down (this aired in the morning before his press conference) he will have to go.
