Bush gave one of his little speeches today about FISA. Usually I just ignore these things, as they are so painful to watch. Today though, some things really stuck out at me.
Any companies that assisted us after 9/11 were assured their cooperation was legal and necessary
You assured them it was legal? Anyone with a 3rd grade education should know that the executive branch doesn't decide what is legal - the courts do.
Then there was this little charm:
it seems that House leaders are more interested in investigating our intelligence professionals then giving them the tools they need to protect us.
Really? Since Bush is threatening to veto this "tool", it sounds like he is more interested in protecting the multi-billion dollar telecom corporations than he is protecting us.
Here's the entire thing if you can stomach watching it.
