The thing is we don't even need to be at war for the President to use his inherent power to use warantless searches when national security is at issue. Sure, in the wrong hands it can be abused by an unscrupulous President. And if they do abuse it, then that President should be impeached. There is ZERO evidence that Bush has ever abused that inherent power, let alone broken any laws. It's really a shame that unscrupulous libs run around falsely claiming how our civil liberties are being eroded under Bush along with every other hysterical, albeit intentionally misleading fallacy they can dream up. They have made a serious issue vital to our national security seem like some scary Big Brother illegal act where Bush is snooping on Joe Six Pack. IMO, they should be feared, not Bush. On virtually every serious issue alleged about the Bush Admin, it's the libs that have lied & misled Americans. They have rightfully earned my complete distrust of them.

<< "procedurally we don’t have formal declarations of war like we use to" >> ....Eight months after George W. Bush was sworn in as our 43rd President, al-Qa'ida terrorists, under the direction Osama bin Laden, hijacked four commercial jets and used them to kill almost 3,000 of our countrymen, all of them noncombatants in a decades-old asymmetric war between Islamofascists and liberty. Three days after that bloodshed, the U.S. Senate and House voted 98-0 and 420-1, respectively, to authorize the President by war resolution "to use all necessary and appropriate force against those nations, organizations or persons he determines planned, authorized, committed or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, or harbored such organizations or persons, in order to prevent any future acts of international terrorism against the United States by such nations, organizations or persons." http://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=22046802
