If one is functioning in the real world, and not moon-bat LaLa land, it's easy to see that this is total BS because thad they been opposed they would have leaked this 4 years ago. That they didn't do this is proof that they had no problem with it. That's the way Washington works.
If any of the attacks that were thwarted by this "spying" had actually gone ahead and gotten Americans killed, every one of these Dems would have been screaming that Bush did not act!
Exactly!! They are using this now to detract from the success of the elections in Iraq since the "pullout now" tactic wasn't working. These hate-Bush traitors will do and say ANYTHING to undermine this president and his administration even if it compromises our national security and aids those we are at war with. They are truly despicable and their true colors are showing more than ever. I am disgusted.
I think you give them too much credit. They didn't oppose it because they didn't understand it. In fact, they still don't understand it. But they do understand politics and they think this is a political opportunity and they're going to run with it until the story dies out. I'm amazed by how often the Dems are now using incompetence as a defense.
Indeed. The President called their bluff about not knowing about it. The letters that Pelosi and Rockefeller wrote were written with the idea of giving them cover when the activities were revealed at some future time, which is now. But at least they can't say they didn't know about it.
