Thank God for Abrams!! I've been screaming this all along:

[cantstandbush]

What national security was endangered by the whistleblower? Our enemies, and certainly Al-qaeda, knew their call would be monitered...they said so in their training manual. So why is the whistleblower taking a hit from the public and why is this administration saying this "leak" has undermined the war on terrorism? AND WHY THE HELL IS THE MSM LETTING THEM USE THAT TO DISTRACT FROM THE BUSHBOTS BREAKING THE LAW AND TRASHING THE CONSTITUTION?

If our enemies don't think they are being tracked and monitored by the highest level intel technology than they aren't even smart enough or dangerous enough to be a problem for us. Everyone knows we bugged the UN and wiretapped UN phones, WTF!!!

I am sick and tired of Bush becoming a dictator right before our very eyes and hiding his criminal behavoir behind the war on terrorism. Congress should declare right now that the war on terrorism is OVER and the only thing that we are engaged in right now is the illegal occupation of a sovereign nation and special ops in Afghanistan. WTF is the media doing to our country by not pointing this shit out to people who can't think beyond gun rights, anti-choice, and anti immigrant polocies?

1. Ummm, Ok But What Did Abrams Do/Say?

[jsamuel]

2. did Abrams actually point this out on his show

I never see him seem to care about the constitution...

[proud2BlibKansan]

4. Yes he did

He was just grilling some guy who was defending the wiretapping.

3. Abrams who? I agree with everything this Abrams is talking

about, but who and where is this information coming from?

MSNBC?

5. Dan Abrams

chief legal correspondent MSNBC

[Inland]

6. Exactly: the terrarists just thought the spying was done with warrants

just like we did.

Why would THEY care if Bush is doing it illegally or legally, as long as they know it is being done?

Clearly the enemy that Bush needs to keep in the dark about his warrantless searches are Americans, not terrarists.

7. Let The "Expose The Whistleblower"

As a Kozak pointed out, if someone is prosecuted for "leaking" this to the Slimes, then it'd be a bonanza for us. The defense would then put this regime on trial about the legality of violating FISA laws and the constitutionality of the whole shooting match. It would open up the doors to all types of investigations and litigation. Bring it on!!!

[proud patriot]

8. Abrams takes the law very seriously

[Child_Of_Isis]

9. Of course they know they are being monitored

that's why they speak in code....I heard that on the tele, it could have been Abrams. I can't remember.
