As I have said so many times, I am a fence sitter politically...I veer little right...I veer a little left... The Democratic party thinks that by harping on the issue of wiretapping by the President they will convince people like me to switch to see things their way and vote Democratic. They are so far from reality. Many Americans such as myself are IN FACT happy that the President is watching out for us....just as President Clinton and President Carter did when they ordered secret wiretaps of suspected terrorists. If there was another major terrorist attack on the U.S. these same jerk politicians would then criticize the President for not doing the wiretaps no matter how he would have had it done.

The Democratic party is just interested in power...they don't give a damn for the country... And what about a debate on the American system of justice and Sen. Ted Kennedy and his killing of campaign worker Mary Joe Koepechne while being stone drunk?

(Washington Times) Democrats on Capitol Hill are drafting a strategy to attack the Bush administration and Republicans as having little regard for the privacy of Americans.
"We will initiate at the beginning of this year one of the most serious debates and discussions on Capitol Hill in our history about individual rights and liberties," Minority Whip Richard J. Durbin said just before Christmas.
The topic will be a major focus of the Supreme Court confirmation hearings of federal Judge Samuel A. Alito Jr. as privacy rights -- the political code phrase for abortion rights -- already has become a major issue, Mr. Durbin said.
Democratic leaders then plan to keep the issue alive as they continue their opposition to key parts of the USA Patriot Act, which is set to expire in early February unless extended.
But the real payoff, Democrats say, will be the hearings into President Bush's authorization of warrantless spying on terror suspects. Already, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Arlen Specter, Pennsylvania Republican, said he wants to hold hearings on the matter.
