In Address, Bush Says He Ordered Domestic Spying nytimes.com
On further review, it turns out that LindyBill's faithful are, as usual, just spewing the W PR line du jour, vis this quote from the above article:
But the revelation of the domestic spying program, which the administration temporarily suspended last year because of concerns about its legality, came in a leak. Mr. Bush said the information had been "improperly provided to news organizations."
As a result of the report, he said, "our enemies have learned information they should not have, and the unauthorized disclosure of this effort damages our national security and puts our citizens at risk. Revealing classified information is illegal, alerts our enemies and endangers our country."
You just got to believe. And when you believe, you just got to repeat whatever BS PR line the handlers are putting in W's mouth today. That W couldn't be bothered to follow the existing, exceedingly lenient policy on such things, where no warrant has ever been denied, is just part of being the never-mistaken war president.
