Those that rant, can't…

…I hope everyone listens to bush rant and rave about his desire for unrestricted surveillance and retroactive immunity for himself and telecom companies that were beginning to tap everyone's communications before 9/11, when it was clearly illegal to do so. (See: Think Progress posting)

He already runs third grade diplomacy and sounds more like a spoiled petulant child everyday.

If he is running a "clean" eavesdropping operation he has always had all the laws he ever needed to conduct such surveillance through the FISA court, which already allows unrestricted access to foreign calls between person not within the U.S. But it seems to be his ability to have an unrestricted ability to surveil Americans without a warrant and help from Big Telecom to aid in that effort.

Oh, what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive.
