We Like Our Beer Cold, Our Barbeque Hot and Our Presidents Unscrupulous As All Hell, Or Something
We told you last week about good ol' W. authorizing the NSA to spy on people inside the country without first getting warrants from a court. Well, fortunately, the bozos in Washington are not going to let the Prez get off with just a smirk, a shoulder shrug and a sarcastic comment (well, as sarcastic a comment as can be conjured by a moron). Democrats and Republicans in Congress are seeking a bi-partisan investigation into Bush's authorization of the NSA to get their spy on.
Apparently Georgie boy just thinks he can do whatever he wants. Look, pal, yes, you are an asshole, but this is not some drinking game where you get to make up the rules as you go along. You are not the president of a fraternity at Yale, you're the President of the United States, for the love of jebus. Democrats are obviously a bit perturbed. "The president has, I think, made up a law that we never passed," said Sen. Russell Feingold, D-Wis.
But the good news is, even the Republicans are a bit nonplussed by the latest move by Bush. "They talk about constitutional authority," Sen. Arlen Specter, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said. "There are limits as to what the president can do," eating a pretzel and not choking to near death apparently not making the list.
If you want to see the Republicans spin faster than a hippie chick dancing on acid in a burlap sack at a Phish show, check out The Big Dick - V.P. Cheney will be on Nightline Monday night explaining their side of the story.
