Bush Wiretapping Bears Its Strange Fruit

Oh, NO! The Bush Administration's warrantless wiretappers would NEVER listen in on private phone conversations of innocent people. They would NEVER use AT&T to go all J. Edgar Hoover on people whose only crime was making personal phone calls having nothing to do with terrorism. We can ALWAYS rely on abolute power not to corrupt absolutely.

So, what's the harm in allowing warrantless wiretaps and encouraging AT&T to report their customers to the federal government?  You must hate the homeland if you love civil liberties, you pinko commies.
