George Bush contends the New York Times broke the law when it reported his ILLEGAL order allowing the NSA to conduct covert monitoring of American citizens. That is a bit of the pot calling the kettle black (or hypocrisy, if you're confused).
Now, he is going to make his big speech tonight on national tv, which will prove to be a tirade of his glorious achievements and accomplishments of bringing peace and democracy (through imperialism) to the Iraqi people. Surely, we must stand up against terrorists wherever they are, including the United States, by giving up our most basic liberties and freedoms (that's what I hear now). Through our war on terror, we have brought democracy to a nation terrorized for decades by a cold blooded killer (there's the rest of it). We will not yield, we are resolved to seeing this mission through, we will spread the gift of democracy this holiday season (there's some more).
Wow, it would seem I could be a Bush speech writer! I have all the tired lines memorized. Of course, Bush must think fast (or rather someone else think fast for him), if he is going to put this illegal NSA action behind him and beat his future impeachment. I believe he will hop on Air Force One, at my expense, and spend Christmas in Iraq with the boys and girls he sent to die. Of course, they will be highly selected and he will never venture outside the airplane hangar, but he will be in Iraq, right?
