Metamorphosis of Bush wire tapping lies No wiretapping can take place in America without a judge signing a warrant. It was only used on thirty calls coming from outside the US. Well maybe they tapped a few foreign calls from inside the US but it was for your security. For security reasons Bush didn't have time to get warrants. Well they did have three days to get warrants afterwards but Bush told congress so that made it OK. Well maybe the two or three congressmen that were told about it were threatened with treason if they said anything about it but the constitution gives Bush the power to ignore the FISA courts. Well maybe every respected jurist and constitutional scholar said Bush didn't have the authority but we are at war and it was only thirty calls and Clinton did it too. Well maybe Clinton didn't do it illegally and maybe it was as many as 500 calls but Bush is just concerned about your safety. Well maybe it was 500 calls simultaneously but again Bush is fighting terror. Well maybe it was millions of calls but do you want to wait for a mushroom cloud? Well maybe it was used on every last call made in America and transcripts of your calls can be bought online but it wasn't used on Bush's political opponents. Well maybe it was used on one democrat but he was accidentally caught up in the NSA “key word search” but only because he used the word “impeach.” Well maybe it was used on every living democrat, their third cousins twice removed, liberal newspapers and the Quakers but why not if they have nothing to hide? Well maybe it was used on Hillary's dog groomer, hair stylist, chauffeur, every black person she has ever met and possible lesbians at Smith College but don't you feel safer?
