REB, are you going to be one of these senior citizens that fall for some phone scam where the callers tell you you've won a prize but can't collect it until you put some money in their bank account? I could care less about anyone's political leanings. I see good and bad in both the right and left but for anyone to be so gullible to believe everything the Bush administration is putting out publicly with no doubt as to its truthfulness is just plain wacko.

There seems to be this unflinching support from Republicans for this man that borders on religious certainty or faith. What is it about this crew that's running things that grants them this distinction? Is it because they invoke God's or Jesus' name every other sentence? I knew Clinton lied during his administration and held disdain for him doing so and yet I still could supported some of his policies. Had I'd gotten into a debate about his politics I would've freely admitted I didn't believe everything he said.

For you to make this definitive statement that Bush's surveillance was limited only to terrorist suspects is absolutely naive. It is well within reason to suspect that, if someone lies about the very existance of the policy (I've listened over and over to a speech by Bush clearly saying that a warrant was required for any wiretapping), one can easily assume that the potential exists for a lie about the extent of the targets.

All of you neocon apologists need to do some serious growing up and learn to cast doubt about all politicians and not just the ones from the other party.
