Bush: I'm legal so back the hell off...

this guy ain't coppin' to a damn thing...

President Bush, brushing aside bipartisan criticism in Congress, said Monday he approved spying on suspected terrorists without court orders because it was "a necessary part of my job to protect" Americans from attack.

The president said he would continue the program "for so long as the nation faces the continuing threat of an enemy that wants to kill American citizens," and added it included safeguards to protect civil liberties.

Bush bristled at a year-end news conference when asked whether there are any limits on presidential power in wartime.

"I just described limits on this particular program, and that's what's important for the American people to understand," Bush said.

this guy has to go... he hasn't got a clue why people are so pissed off... no matter how many times you insist something's legal doesn't make it legal... but that's the m.o. of bushco... legal, right, correct, true, honest is how THEY define it... never mind what anyone else thinks...
