HELP! What was *'s first wiretapping excuse?

[Mugsy]

Can anyone help me find the exact quote (preferably video/audio) of Bush defending his April 20, 2004 lie? My searches are coming up empty but I *know* I remember him giving a defense to the following:

After it was discovered that the NSA was indeed wiretapping without a warrant, President Bush defended his apparent lie on April 20, 2004 in Ohio by saying something along the lines that it wasn't a lie because they were tracking calls where at least one of the parties was outside of the United States."

Well, now we know THAT was a lie too, so why isn't anyone asking him, in light of the news that they're tracking purely domestic calls as well, how does he now defend that 2004 statement?

PS: The only "quote" on the matter I've been able to find so far reads:

"Weeks after the al-Qaida attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, Bush authorized the NSA to eavesdrop without a warrant on calls between someone in the United States and a second party overseas, provided that the NSA has reason to believe at least one of the parties is linked to al-Qaida."

Anyone have a better source? Thanks.

1. Might consider giving benburch a PM and asking

He may have what you seek

2. You will work yourself into a tizzy

trying to backtrack Bush's lies.

There are so many, you could put twenty on each number of a roulette wheel, and just spin it. Winner every time.

3. Good point, but still necessary.

Since this is a CURRENT issue, I'd like to see someone follow up on it until this lie too vanishes into the memory hole.
