1. I saw this on Olbermann. This general doesn't know the Constitutional

laws he is bound to protect.

Throw the bums out! (Donkey kicking elephant for Dem logo)

over there. I would have missed it if not for you.

4. Oh man, that is delicious!

I especially liked the part in the General's clip where he says, "if there is any amendment the NSA knows, it is the Fourth Amendment" followed by the actual quote from the Fourth Amendment, positively delicious!

Thanks for capturing and posting this!

9. Hayden clearly doesn't care about the law.

He's using this whole debate as a smoke screen while they do what they want. Who's going to stop them?

[Cocoa]

10. wow

11. And Puffy McMoonface got it wrong today, too.

When the President took the oath of office, he took an oath based on the Constitution that said he will do everything he can to protect America from all threats, foreign and domestic.

White House Press Briefing, Jan. 24, 2006

Must be referring to the Shadow Guvmint's Constitution (the same one that "diplomat" Karen Hughes tells everyone says "under God").

My copy reads like this:

Before he enter on the execution of his office, he shall take the following oath or affirmation:--"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

U.S. Constitution, Article II, Section 1

12. This Hayden guy in the fancy uniform is an idiot.

There's that wonderful right-wing combination of arrogance and incompetence that we've grown to know and love so.

17. I'd like to know who died and left him boss. for chrissakes, we didn't

vote for him.

Who the hell is some military general to tell us what the constitution means. He is to follow. He can go screw off!

That's because evesdropping is reasonable!
