ALERT: Thanks to the Freedom of Information Act, we have just discovered the former President of the United States, despite a ban on wire tapping without a warrant, , deliberately and covertly authorized certain federal agencies, including the FBI, to use this high tech eavesdropping in violation of the US Constitution! This was being done on private citizens that have done no harm, been involved in NO crimes and were merely suspected of being linked to or had associations with certain people, countries and groups! No wonder the Pres tried to keep this under wraps, had it come out while he was in office he would have been impeached and he knew it!
As is being reported, this President apparently issued a secret order via the Attorney General’s Office under the pretext that this nation is in grave danger from fanatical subversive elements within and that his action was necessary and legal because he, as President, is charged with protecting national security and this supersedes all other considerations.
In his defense, a former aide said, “Sometimes there will be lag time between the Constitution and legislation that makes it absolutely necessary for the President to temporarily act unilaterally and quickly to preserve and protect the union.”
I don’t know about you, but I believe Franklin D. Roosevelt was probably right when he authorized this action in 1940. A number of Nazi collaborators and spies were caught as a result and it helped make his case to the American people, that war was imminent and we needed to build up our defenses quickly. Why Bush’s pic? Oh, I just wanted to see if you would jump to conclusions and condemn him. Sorry, wasn’t ol Bushie, it was the Supreme Democrat leader of the century, FDR.
