Snip:

Former President Clinton said Thursday that he never ordered wiretaps of American citizens without obtaining a court order, as President Bush has acknowledged he has done.
Clinton, in an interview broadcast Thursday on the ABC News program ''Nightline,'' said his administration either received court approval before authorizing a wiretap or went to court within three days after to get permission, as required by law.

1. If Clinton had ordered Illegal Wiretaps

The 'Pukes would have Impeached him for that instead of the BS they pulled.

2. After the screams of "police state" that the Repukes threw around

in 1995, when Clinton asked for measures which would rein in terrorism (domestic and foreign), you would think that any hint of anything remotely "illegal" would have been exposed - especially when you had some idjit who claimed that he was in on the secret goings-on of the Clinton illegalities . . . Gary Aldrich, wasn't it? "Unlimited Access"? Claiming he was an insider at the FBI?

Wonder where he missed that one . . . but apparently, Bob Golic knew about it - even though contradicts himself when he says that "nobody ever found out" about Clinton's illegal wiretaps . . .
