Cheap shot? In his own words? he was asking Alito why he could discuss the right of free speech, vs the right of privacy! Alito answered "because one is enumerated, and the other inferred". out of Context? You do try to spin! badly I might add! Dr. Guy, would you please show me where

He gets more credit than clueless Leahy who had to ask Alito where the right to Free speech was! I know it's hard for you to resist, but that was a very cheap shot at Leahy. He was not asking that question in the context that you're framing it.

NSA critics should pry open their minds and at least attempt to absorb the entirety of what he had to say. To be clear, I'm not saying that there is not a necessity for this type of surveillance. If someone here in the US is chattin it up with terrorists, I want the govt. to know about it. I just don't accept that they have to go about it in this backdoor way like they have, when they already had a legal means to do the exact same th

Who does the Constitution say has the power to declare war? Who does the Constitution say is the Commander in Chief? Where in the Constitution does it define how a war is to be waged? You still didn't answer my question.

And sorry to say that the legal standard is not "just" probable cause when it comes to getting a warrant. So the questioner does not have all the info. Still waiting on your response for this one regarding the legal standard in FISA cases being anything other than probable cause, Drmiler.

he got you. While the Amendment does contain the clause of "probable cause", he was never asked if that was part of the 4th amendment. And the General is correct. The Interviewer was the doofus here. It's really sad that a person like yourself, who considers himself "well read" and a patriot would read

It's called "time constraints"! Usually when they get a tip like that they do not have the luxury of putzing around! What time constraints? They don't have to wait for the judge to rule before they act, they just have to go back and show probable cause to get the warrant after the fact. That's one of

I'd like to stay on the same issue, and that had to do with the standard by which you use to target your wiretaps.

On MSNBC's Countdown show on Wednesday night, while host Keith Olbermann attacked Atlanta-based syndicated conservative radio talk show host Neal Boortz, a photograph of former Democratic Senator Max Cleland of Georgia was mistakenly displayed on-screen. Link Neal Boortz is rude, insensitive, and will probably offend you at some point during the show; and his listeners wouldn't have it any other way! We're not sure if it's h

You called him a conservative which even "you" admit he's not! Where did I admit that he's not? Are you saying that a Libertarian cannot be a conservative?

You choked on this one. I listen to Neal and he is not a conservative. I didn't "choke" on anything. I didn't say he was a Republican, he's a proclaimed Libertarian, although he falls in closer with Republicans than Democrats on most issues. I used him as an example that it's not only Liberals/Democra

Here is another relevant story; Bush administration eliminating 19-year-old international terrorism report By Jonathan S.

I'm pleased that there hasn't been another attack like 9/11 too. However, I don't think it can really be shown that this is the result of anything that the administration has done. Well, there was a crackpot they caught who thought he was going to take down the Brooklyn Bridge with a jackhammer. Thank God they caught him!

A few days ago, Karl Rove offered a preview Link of what will be the GOP's primary issue of focus in the 2006 elections; National Security.

I'm not defending Jefferson, he's obviously a crook just like Delay. My point is that the story was not buried at all. The alleged charges against Delay are far more sweeping than the ones against Jefferson's aide. There's also the fact that Delay is a much higher profile Congressman than Jefferson. Therefore, it's understandable that there has been much more coverage of Delay. There are also other corruption stories with GOP Congressman that ha
