Bush wiretapped 80,000 Americans?
Edited on Tue Jan-03-06 06:52 PM by thereismore
Randi just said the number 80,000. Where is she getting this from?

Added on edit:

Didn't the feeble mind say that he only wiretapped bad people who had contact with Al Qaeda? 80,000 sounds like the whole Al Qaeda took a field trip to the US! :hide:

13. so, we're talking about
the 80 year old pro-peace, anti-nuclear nun, Green Party members, Quakers, Anti-war protesters and Catholic, Dorothy Day, anti-poverty volunteers. Man, oh man, these dangerous terrorists are a real threat to the country. They might help feed the poor, or cause the feeble minded to believe in peace, non-violence or JESUS. They're dangerous I tell ya!!!!:sarcasm:

15. I would bet it's more like 8,000,000
they admitted to spying on war protestors, of whom there were a couple million. If the truth ever comes out on this, it'll be in the millions.

16. Probably used the same technique they did to purge the voter rolls in FL
in 2000.

I imagine them rationalizing it something like this:

"This one's name is Abdul? Ok. There's an Abdul on our Al Queda list here. Sure he lives a thousand miles away and is twenty years younger and spells his last name differently, but he's got three consonants in common there with the last name too. Could be trouble. We'd better just have a listen and maybe indefinitely lock him up in an undisclosed location. And just to be on the safe side, lets snoop on that old hippie across the street we saw Abdul chatting with last week ... and all the hippie's friends."
