NEWSROOM SOURCES TELL DRUDGE REPORT... REPORTER LOWELL BERGMAN LEADS NEW DEVELOPMENTS...
for Pete's sake
I have never in my life seen such a blatant axe to grind...
THTTTBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB!
Another 2nd day, PM lead.
this one week delay to the Alito vote - they are going to pull out all the stops between now and next Tuesday.
What a coincidence. Gore just gave a ninety-minute speech on how evil dictator Bush is spying on America, and now this.
These attacks are carefully planned and coordinated. Bush has done NOTHING to clean the clintonoid rogues out of the FBI. So it won't be a surprise if the next attack is orchestrated by Pinch and the leftist weasels clinton promoted into the top ranks of the Bureau.
Are the owners of the New York Times aware that the value of their shares is going to tank shortly?
Try as they may they will be left as a pillar of salt looking back as a testament to the abomination they worship.
Here's Drudge being a shill for the NYT again. This is really getting old.
Yes and we all know which party is stupid enough to have allowed the week delay to happen, after promises by dems not to delay.
I don't know that the rules could have been changed to stop it.
They are running out of secrets to divulge.
They have basically tipped off the enemy to everything.
Al Queda's best friend is the left and the msm.
It gives me great comfort knowing that the Bush administration will be in the seat of power for another three years and there isn't a damn thing Al gore. MoveOn.org, the NYT or anyone else can do about it. They can bluster, threaten, write articles and give speeches until the cows come home. Tough sh**!!
Two Groups Plan Lawsuits Over Federal Eavesdropping
By ERIC LICHTBLAU Published: January 17, 2006
WASHINGTON, Jan. 16 - Two leading civil rights groups plan to file lawsuits Tuesday against the Bush administration over its domestic spying program to determine whether the operation was used to monitor 10 defense lawyers, journalists, scholars, political activists and other Americans with ties to the Middle East.
The two lawsuits, which are being filed separately by the American Civil Liberties Union in Federal District Court in Detroit and the Center for Constitutional Rights in Federal District Court in Manhattan, are the first major court challenges to the eavesdropping program.
Both groups are seeking to have the courts order an immediate end to the program, which the groups say is illegal and unconstitutional. The Bush administration has strongly defended the legality and necessity of the surveillance program, and officials said the Justice Department would probably vigorously oppose the lawsuits on national security grounds.
Justice Department officials would not comment on any specific individuals who might have been singled out under the National Security Agency program, and they said the department would review the lawsuits once they were filed.
Brian Roehrkasse, spokesman for the Justice Department, added Monday that "the N.S.A. surveillance activities described by the president were conducted lawfully and provide valuable tools in the war on terrorism to keep America safe and protect civil liberties."

That's it????
That's nothing.
Drudge, I'm ashamed of you!
IF republicans had the cajones to delay something like this, the dems would hang them in effigy all over the country as mean vile partisans.
Oh, man. I am so shakin' in my boots over this....
"Two leading civil rights groups plan to file lawsuits Tuesday against the Bush administration over its domestic spying program to determine whether the operation was used to monitor 10 defense lawyers, journalists, scholars, political activists and other Americans with ties to the Middle East."
Gee, I wonder if CAIR is involved in this? I have a funny feeling they are...
That's nothing either.
Neither is a "high impact story". Even if Drudge uses red letters ;)
Neither article deserves such a drastic headline from Drudge...maybe it's something totally different?????
