"The Police Board said that the bill 'indicates a frightening lack of understanding for the requirements regarding the protection of citizens’ privacy...'"
When the cops say "whoa", you know it's bad.

In a moment you will post a naive statement about how you trust your illegal wiretapping overlord.

My question is - how do you know that? Since he wiretaps illegally and did not admit it, what makes you think you know how much illegal wiretapping he is doing?

"You develop an instant global consciousness, a people orientation, an intense dissatisfaction
with the state of the world, and a compulsion to do something about it. From out there on the
moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the
neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, 'Look at that, you son of a bitch.'"

We are all well aware of your feelings about Bush. Would you like to add something regarding the topic at hand, or should I just go ahead and lock this thread before we get the full on derailment?

Pssst... you're posting a question to someone who can't answer you.

Friendly advice: peeb seems to be getting banned lately, so it's probably worth the time to check that before posting.
Edit: Mind-taker!

I don't know if Bush KNOWS HOW to spy. He's either a major IDIOT when convenient, or Super clever/smart/evil.
Pick one....

Domestic spying is hardly a new thing in the US and hardly something that Bush though up all by himself. Anyone remember CARNIVORE? ECHELON? TIA?
Seems to me that Sweden is merely catching up.
