A discredit to the GOP
What do you expect from a bunch of thugs?
The Bush misadministration's distortion, for political purposes, of the Democratic position on warrantless surveillance is loathsome.
Despite the best efforts of Karl Rove, the slimy WH puffball, and the fabulous RNC headcheese Ken Mehlman to make it seem otherwise, Democrats are not opposed to vigorous, effective surveillance that could uncover terrorist activity. Nor are the concerns that they are expressing unique to their party. Republican Sens. John McCain, Arlen Specter, Chuck Hagel, Lindsey Graham and Sam Brownback have expressed legal doubts about the surveillance program. Do they, too, have a "pre-9/11 worldview," as Mr. Rove said of the Democrats?
