US probes eavesdropping leak

There's more than one kind of "reading", but in any case it seems sort of dumb to identify the members of an Internet forum where people come to read and write opinions as a group that doesn't "read".



I suppose an Ultra Rightie might think of think of this as reading, but we were actually talking about a thing called a book... a literary form of expression. You should try picking one of those up some time.
Oh and they usually dont have a whole lot of pictures... so no new callouses will occur.



Ah, you kind of stereotype yourself in this post. You know the line of thought............Lefty is smarter than righty, righty should not vote because they are not smart enough (the read comment you know) :S

Unless I am missing something your quote is speaking to the rules regarding the Patriot Act, right?

The NSA wire taps are not related to the Patriot Act. The NSA power to tap came from a vote in Congress and and excutive order. (the same orders that have been signed by Carter, Regean, Bush 1 Clinton and now Bush 2) so, if he speaks of an unrealed topic he can't be telling and untruth no can he?

Also, funny how billvon likes to keep bring up the BJ not anint it:D




"Now, by the way, any time you hear the United States government talking about wiretap, it requires-a wiretap requires a court order. Nothing has changed, by the way. When we're talking about chasing down terrorists, we're talking about getting a court order before we do so."

What part of "any time" don't you understand?

Perhaps the fact that this quote was rendered whilst the purported eavesdropping program was still covert eludes you.

Still waiting, my dear Kallend.

:S



Saying you do one thing while doing the exact opposite falls under the category of "lie" in my book. He didn't have to say anything.

I really don't see how the people can take anything this president says at face value, but that appears to be OK with you.

If he said the Sun rises in the East I'd go out and check!

I doubt he'd ever say that. He'd say it rises to the right.:|

Fire, Brimstone, Pomegranites, elephants, A mariachi band playing 'smoke on the water' backwards.

Keifer Sutherland and Kim Basinger locked in the trunk of a Cadillac doing a ventriloquiste routine with a large salmon.

Chaos, anarchy, lack of toilet paper.

True devastation of the toothpick economy, and a severe lack of BBQ sauce.

I think that about sums it up.

TV's got them images, TV's got them all, nothing's shocking.

He didn't have to defend the Patriot Act? Keep dreaming.

I remain waiting...

:S



He didn't have to lie. It was perfectly clear what was meant.

If you have to lie to defend your actions, there's something seriously wrong.

Interesting that the defense has now shifted from "Bush doesn't lie, it was all just bad intel" to "He lied but it was in the national interest":|

It's more amazing to me that the meaning of the word 'covert' eludes you. Even more amazing that you expect me to take any Dem seriously when it comes to national security when you can provide me absolutely no reason to do so. Their silence is somewhat deafening with regards to several major leaks/violations. Yet they cared so much with Ms. Plame. As I stated - they don't care about security leaks. It's all about embarassing GWB to them. National security is a non-concern for them apparently. If you doubt this, please explain their silence.

Looks like you've got a busy year ahead.


Year? LOL. What with the reading I do on-line, and combined with the rest of my life, they should last approximately 2 months. Then I've got another gift certificate to B&N, and I'll go spend that, as well. That, considering it's a hefty amount, might last me through the end of summer. (And they generally don't have pictures, either, unless I've picked up a book with art or diagrams in it....)

Oh well. Readers of books there are here, and again, Jeanne, don't sell someone short simply because they don't agree with you. If that were the case, there are many educated people on this site I'd sell short...like Bill Von, for example.

My Dad, a staunch democrat, had a similar opinion. He used to believe that republicans were not educated as widely as dems, but after discussing some things with both my brother and I, both not college graduates, he's changed his opinion...he still doesn't agree with us, but it's now far more honest intellectually instead of based in a prejudgment that repubs aren't educated.

In this argument over reading, I think we are all ignoring one little fact:

V for Vendetta is a COMIC book.

While I enjoy them, I really don't compare them to reading a novel.

:ph34r::ph34r::ph34r:

But I do agree that one should not call the side they disagree with stupid just because they are the other side.

Why do I have to explain the actions of the Dems? I am NOT one.

Glad that you no longer deny the lies of Bush & Co., but just make light of them instead. Soon you'll come to appreciate Clinton's BJs too.

Because it is black and white, kallend. There is no other view. If you bash the republicans, you love democrats and vice versa. Any questionable action committed by one side can ALWAYS be explained away by the inaction of the other side.

Didn't you get the memo?

You are unable to accept.:P
