The RCP Blog: The NSA Story: Bombshell or Dud?
On the one hand you have the right, who will say that the left is absurd, ridiculous and hypocritical about the wiretapping issue. On the left are the advocates of "This is terrible, impeachable, blah, blah, blah." It is really fun to read each side of the issue. The right has its points, as does the left. I would just ask, "If the White House, Congress and the Supreme Court was controlled by the left, and rather extreme at that, would you trust it? Would you be supporting an extreme liberal who was doing the same thing? Would you trust this guy if he threw you in prison with no access for an attorney? Put you in a secret prison, under the guise of national security? Search your library records and credit history at will without notifying you? Tap your phone lines and e-mail without court warrants? Override any law he, the Pres, feels necessary to investigate you? That the Legislature and Judiciary have absolutely no oversight on any of this? And that I have no right to question any of it? Honest answer now? An extreme liberal, remember. Would you be saying the same thing?"
