Rodeo, when a Democrat gets in office, or a Republican abuses the power, I agree that the expanded powers should cease...Until then the rag-headed friends of the left need monitoring because they are using our rights to do us harm. Unlike the left's union handout, increased airport security, that spends billions on political correctness, the wire-tapping is focused to those that have demonstrable suspicious connections to foreign lands or suspects.

I doubt highly that Bush and Rove are going to give you seditious lefties the opportunity, by abusing the wire-tapping privilege, to undermine him or the war on terror any more than you have already...The moment there is a case of abuse, I will rethink my position. Unfortunately it seems like it will take another 3000+++ American casualties, on American soil, for you lefties and far far far righties to see the light.
