Sen. Lautenberg's aide said that the senator wants the wiretapping to be more balanced.

HUH? So what, do it like the mess at the airport? We are suppose to have a quota system? Track a number of white males and grandmas and kids to be "Fair"? Simply unbelievable.

[Roccus]

I think I remember him saying he lived in the mountains.

[Roccus]

Never called while I was listening.

Hey Rush, page him on the show!!!

That's funny. :) That is all the Democrats have. They're not going to know how to run in 2008 when W is leaving office. I think many of them will STILL run against Bush even though he can't run again. :)

[Ingtar]

I expect both of President Bush's Supreme Court appointees to abstain if the NSA case gets that far. If this is the case, the USSC might not be a win for the administration.

[TexasPatriot8]

Man I imagine I heard it back then, but I have SO slept since then. :) I don't even remember anything specific I DID in 1997/98, much less what I heard back then. :)

[TexasPatriot8]

That's exactly what he means. Quotas on wiretaps. The new retarded. Just plain STUPID. Muslims are 100% of terrorists, Muslims should be 100% of wire taps. Just that simple.

There's NO reason for them to abstain. Roberts had to abstain in Hamdan v. Rumseld because he had WRITTEN the opinion on the circuit court, that's a clear conflict. Neither Alito or Roberts have ruled or taken part in the NSA deliberations and therefore do NOT have to recuse themselves.

You can be queen of the waffles! LOL

John Kerry all ready holds that title

[MNJohnnie]

He said he voted for Reagan twice..

And says he is 40 so either he is lying about his age or his voting record. If he were forty he was 14 or 15 in 1980 and could not have voted for Reagan since he was not old enough.

[FaithintheRight]

Correcto! Kerry is King of Waffles! Speaking of waffles & Kerry... this is a favorite pic of mine - Inaguration Day with Kerry staring down on PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH.... Would love to know what Kerry's thoughts were at that moment.

While Wilson did express a religious interpretation, the philosophy behind the construction of the constitution married many different concepts of natural law, both secular and religious. These days people like to argue about intent rather than marvel over how wise and ambiguous the design was. Separation does not exist in the document, which leaves each citizen to address the topic of how much religion they do or don't accept in their own governance. Freedom for citizen's to decide for their self is the brilliance of it.

Nope only have to sit out cases they have all ready ruled on. This is a new case so they do NOT have to sit it out since the SC hearing would be the 1st they heard THIS case.

...Mussies, 90% of the wiretaps: The other 10% reserved for the RAT sympathizers.

[OldFriend]

I had a conversation with the young man for at least ten minutes. He really had no answer for my questions and commentary. It was frustrating but he really couldn't answer my questions with any clarity at all. Had no answers, just kept saying we should get permission from the FISA court first. I reminded him that the FISA court was established before 9/11 and that things had changed. That there were people in Paterson, NJ and Detroit, MI who would be dancing in the streets if we were attacked again. That I did not want to wait for that to happen and the democrat idea of going back to Square One......meant going back to before 9/11 and being vulnerable to an attack. Told him that the families of the dead would give anything for their loved ones to be alive and that the democrats were setting us up for more grieving families with their hatred of the President.

[Two-Bits]

It's stupid people like this guy that ALMOST make me rethink my stand on abortion.

I think the same way you do. "Pro-Choice? Shame, your mother choose incorrectly"

[MNJohnnie]

Except of course your interpretation ignores the context of the Founders time. What they opposed was a State subsides Church where no believers were forced to PAY mandated taxes (know as tithes) to a Church they did not support. They NEVER would of continued this imposition of the Atheist LACK of religion on everyone else. It is EXACTLY counter to their fundamental beliefs.

[TexasPatriot8]

Yeah no reason to think that Roberts or Alito will recuce themselves, they never had any part of any court case dealing with this. And they'll vote to overturn it, but I don't think it will get to them. I think the appeals court will oberturn it. Five other Judges in the U.S. have already said that the NSA plan is legal and Constitutional. That strong establishment of precedent will rule the day.
