I'd say it's a lie. Yes, I would.

"He now authorizes wiretaps with out any court order. How can this be so?" International tracking of known terrorists during a war is a legal option (and duty in this case) for the President. If a German commander called someone in the U.S. during WW2 would the President need a court order? Of course not. Same with terrorists operating a broad now. Only an extreme Bush (and America) hater could be offended by this program, much less call our CinC a criminal for tracking our enemy. An extreme position your party is taking. As a republican, I am encouraged by the dem position. As an American, I am disgusted and appalled.
