12. Gonzales is also participating in a false argument-when
questioned as to why the President was in his rights to issue an executive order that violates the FISA law-he stated that the reason was because we are in an "electronic age" and therefore need to do it this way. That is a fallacy. Being in an electronic age is not the cause of a choice made by this administration to break the law. The same as being commander and chief of the military in times of war does not mean he is the commander and chief of all US citizens. If he wants to spy on the army, maybe he has a leg to stand on. Why don't reporters call them out on these things. My 12th grade English teacher (God rest his sole) would be stroking right now.
