Congress authorized eavesdropping

So, lemme get this straight. There are terrorists in the US talking with terrorists outside the US. After 9/11, the president authorized the NSA to eavesdrop on the international part of that conversation, not unlike hopefully 1,000s of cases the CIA conducts everyday. But because one terminus of the NSA targeted conversation happens to be a terrorist located within US territory, the press and DemoRATS are placing the backs of their hands against their peaked foreheads, going weak in the knees and fainting while looking for a couch and the salts. If you needed another one, this reason number 100,856 why it is not yet safe to vote DemoRAT.

I don’t know what all of the fuss about. I trusted that our government was doing exactly this kind of thing. Now, I find out that they are doing it, but the DemoRATS and MSM are upset about it. An incredulous Tim Russert kept asking Sec State Condi Rice “by who’s authority were such actions were being taken.” Rice said, “Well Tim, I’m not a lawyer blah, blah, blah.”

Well Tim, Lex ain’t no damn lawyer either, but let me give ‘er a shot, Tim. Tim, did you know that on Sep 18, 2001 the congress of these here United States authorized the president to use “all necessary and appropriate force against those nations, organizations, or persons he determines (Looky there, Tim, it says "he", meaning the president. But it don’t say nothing ‘bout no damn Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court.) planned, authorized, committed, or aided the terrorist attacks that occurred on September 11, 2001, or harbored such organizations or persons, in order to prevent any future acts of international terrorism against the United States by such nations, organizations or persons.” Hot damn, that there Google thing is great Tim. You ought to try it sometime seeins how you’re in the business ‘n all.

Oh yeah, Tim, then there’s that pesky war resolution on Iraq that your BOY John, I was in Vietnam blowing myself up with my own hand grenades and collecting Purple Hearts for it, Kerry voted for, “Whereas the President has authority under the Constitution to take action in order to deter and prevent acts of international terrorism against the United States, as Congress recognized in the joint resolution on Authorization for Use of Military Force (Public Law 107-40)” Tim, that there Public Law 107-40 just takes us back to the first quote. Oh, and Tim, there’s that little known part of the Constitution, Executive Department, Article II or something. You know the one. It has that whole Commander in Chief thing in it.

Why are media bums and DemoRATS so believable when they act ignorant about things? Prediction: This is so easily understood, Joe Sixpack will immediately be asking, “What the hell they fussin’ ‘bout? It’s just a bunch a damned terrist.”
