Headline reads: Bush says Congress putting US in danger

The headline should read, " America says Bush puts U.S. in danger!" Here we have fear mongering by this President and his Vice President, along with the Republican Lackeys. They are worrying over the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act not being approved by Congress. It is set to expire Feb. 1st. The Bill authorizes for the spying on all foreign and domestic calls without getting approval from the FISA Court. The argument is that the "red tape" causes delays and we will be vulnerable to attacks when the law expires. What a bunch of Bull.

First, according to all intelligence accounts, Al-Qaeda takes as much as 5 years to plan an attack. We have been spying supposedly on them all this time since the law was approved back after 9-11, so the fact that Congress is going out on a 10 day recess, doesn't make us any more vulnerable than having Bush in office another 10 days. Oops, maybe I should really be concerned after all. Congress please take this Bill up when you return from recess and this time vote it down officially! The Bush Administration must get approval from the FISA Court and the Telephone companies should not be granted immunity for going along with the Bush Administration attempts to circumvent the Court.
