		<description>The wire tapping program by Bush or predessors:

1) Was not used for terorism
2) Did not protect federal court and attorney rights
3) Did not protect victims of domestic or international civilians caught
up in terroristic acts (esp before 911)
4) Sabotaged the work of corporations
5) Countered the protection of victims attempting to come forward to trial
5) Covered up the acts and wrong doings of perpetrators who may have come from the military (child and domestic abuse)
6) For the this reason,  A new DEMOCRATCY shall prevail in the US.m  LR
7) Surveillance has not been used for anything under the SUN not war.

Feel Sorry for US and other who cannot find Peace.</description>

		<description>Are you all stupid im 16 years old and it is obvious that the brother did it, Jealousy! no doubt him and john benet were muckin around sexually and he sufficated her by accident the parents came home...she wasnt in her room and they called the police this is the story aparantly and then they called the police and the friends and the father then decided to check the huge house....would you do that first?? then the father and his friend went downstairs and the father said &quot;oh my god&quot; before the light was turned on.....futher down the track, not straight away the mate of the father said that he couldnt see anything before the father turned the light on and yet &quot;oh my god&quot; was said in the dark..
My theory was the brother killed his sister by accident and the mother and father came home and the brother was worried, they made it look like a murder by tying her up, made a ransom note and then called the police...why wouldnt you search the house first!!

IT wasnt  john mark at all his story did not work out at all because he states that he was with john benet when she died and that it was an accident and yet it is proved that john benet died in her brothers bed...
If you agree with me or have anything to say or ask me about or you know evidence please email me, me and my parents are looking deep into this case my email adress is italian.princess.jess at hotmail.com</description>

		<description>Mother Jones claims to do investigative journalism -- why hasn&#039;t Jeffrey Klein called on MoJo to look into it from the American side? The magazine already covered the CIA&#039;s involvement in the abduction, but more from a waste-of-taxpayer money standpoint (&quot;Why isn&#039;t the CIA more frugal?&quot;) than an illegal-violation-of-U.S.-and-Italian-law-and-human-rights standpoint.

If the transmissions from Greece were being sent to a phone in Maryland, someone must know -- or at least be able to ask -- whose phone that was, and where it was located. If the Greeks asked, what was the answer? And there must be phone records of calls made to and from that phone.

There must be some state law being violated in receiving illegally tapped phone calls in Maryland -- wasn&#039;t some variation of that what got Linda Tripp into trouble during Monicagate? Wouldn&#039;t that be something that state and local law enforcement, and the phone company, would want to know about and look into?

Investigating the story might not reveal all or even some of the answers, but it might force the feds to have to block the investigation by claiming that it was a national security issue, which would confirm they were the ones who tapped the Greek phone system.Otherwise, they&#039;d have to make at least a token effort themselves to find out who was doing it, or else it would be pretty obvious they didn&#039;t actually want to know the answer, which again would confirm that they were in on it

I agree with the concerns you list, but I&#039;m willing to lay it on the line.  I&#039;m telling the Bush administration and its supporters that it&#039;s &quot;put up or shut up&quot; time.  You want warrantless wiretapping?  Fine.  Prove that it&#039;s legal.  Prove that you aren&#039;t monitoring anyone other than known or alleged terrorists.  And no, you don&#039;t have to reveal state secrets.  Just show us who you&#039;ve been monitoring. 

Besides, I can always borrow a Republican trick and at the end of the day, say &quot;Sorry. I&#039;ve decided not to support the program.&quot;</description>

		<description>#458 WC,

Be careful what you wish for.  If, in an attempt to satisfy people who impose those conditions, they do release the lists you ask for, what guarantee will there be that the lists will be accurate and complete?  How do you know that the list will contain ONLY those people with &quot;known al Qaeda ties and/or affiliates&quot;, and not all the other people they did this to?  &quot;What&#039;s Bush got to hide?&quot;  You mean besides his open disdain for telling the truth?  You mean besides the fact that he doesn&#039;t want it publicly documented that he&#039;s a liar?  You mean evidence that he broke the law and violated his oath of office?

I understand your point, I really do.  But given that this president has demonstrated time and again to those who will open their eyes and their ears that he can&#039;t be trusted to reveal the truth, I would be hesitant to give him ANY way to continue doing these claerly illegal, unconstitutional things.  But one thing that would be good about your request: listening to them explain why they can&#039;t (won&#039;t) do it.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Did I miss anything? 

Comment by Briseadh na Faire â€” August 17, 2006 @ 11:17 pm&lt;/em&gt; 

Nope.  You&#039;ve pretty much summed it up.

My feelings are still hurt because I could not get Mr. Big to admit the slight credibility problem with the fact that Bush is so concerned about speed when it comes to international calls, but isn&#039;t the least bit concerned about it regarding purely domestic calls.  Oh, he tried to take Bush&#039;s side, but failed miserably.

I got a good laugh this morning when I saw a clip of Gonzales on CNN saying there was oversight of the program.  What a fool.  Oversight by members of your own administration doesn&#039;t count.  And informing a small (what...8 members?) group of Congresspersons of your intentions, and then swearing them to secrecy, is not oversight, either. 

Finally, after much thought, I&#039;ve decided to tell the Bush administration and the trolls here that I will support warrantless wiretapping on two conditions:

1- The admin allows a bipartisan group of Congresspersons to look at the lists of people/groups they&#039;ve monitored thus far.  Hey, the program is legal, right?  What&#039;s Bush got to hide?

2- 99% of the targets on that list are al Qaeda operatives, or people that are affiliated with al Qaeda.  Remember what Bush said: &quot;The electronic monitoring was limited to people with â€œknown al Qaeda ties and/or affiliates.â€</description>

		<description>you actually think if a dem takes the white house, anyone will be able to hear the left blaming anyone over the din of right-wing hysteria that will ensue? if so, i have one question for you: what country have you been living in the last 13 years?

and god forbid it&#039;s hillary. that would extend the shelf-life on &quot;blame clinton&quot; for at least another quarter century.</description>

		<description>Well. since we&#039;re all pretty sure that as soon as a dem takes office you guys are going to blow something else up and blame it on terrorists and weak democratic security measures, I&#039;d say probably within the first 12 months.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m just curious.  Let&#039;s assume for the moment that in &#039;08 a Democrat takes office in the White House.  How many years after that will the left blame everything that happens in the US on the   Bush Administration?  I&#039;m only asking, because if that does happen, I want to know when it will be that whatever Democrat was in office in that many years, they start accepting blame for whatever ills befall the country.  So what will it be, 10, 15, 20 years?  Anyone care to throw out a number?</description>

		<description>I will also say that we couldn&#039;t agree more.  Except when I say &quot;we&quot; I mean &quot;we, the people&quot; and when snowjob says it he is using the &quot;royal &#039;we&#039;&quot;.

So not all judges are yet corrupt.</description>

		<description>I visted some my favorite Crazy Republican blogs, and NONE of them even mentioned this ruling.  It&#039;s so ridiculous that they go into selective-reality mode ESPECIALLY when the truth comes out and they get caught.  It&#039;s so frustrating dealing with this wackos.  And watching the Admistration try to challenge this is so ridiculous too, they got caught, but they will still lie to break the law. Bastards!</description>
