The article consists of opinions on news reports. What facts were misrepresented?
The article paints a picture of Democrats wanting to suspend wiretaps of foreign terrorists when
"There is evidence that the information harvested helped foil several plots and disrupt Al-Queda operations....."The FISA regulations called into question by the Democrats have nothing to do with the wiretaps of foreigners. These fall outside the scope of the regulations. Democrats have never opposed or called these into question! The executive branch does
not need judicial approval to wiretap suspected foreign terrorists.
What the Democrats called into question was the
illegal wiretaps of
American citizens. If Democrats ought to support illegal wiretaps of American citizens, why have any laws at all??? Why not just give the executive branch complete and total power to do whatever they damn well want?
The whole premise of the article is intellectually dishonest and little more than a coordinated smear.
