Confederate Yankee has caught Truthout in a wee bit of a f*ck up. See, Truthout has made a big deal out of George "Still The President" Bush potentially allowing the NSA to spy internally on suspected terrorists prior to 9/11. But, like all good liberals, they forget to fully read the material.
Check the PDF, page 1. As CF noticed, it was put together in 2000, based on material from 1998. I know libs want to juke and jive the issue, but, yes, Bill Clinton was the President during that time period. So, is it OK for President Bush to continue doing the same thing Clinton was doing? I know the liberals on the forum I frequent didn’t want to answer that question, just deflectorama.
At what point will the hard left realize that Bush cannot run for reelection, and their constant living in the past, looking for any minor issue to hurt him, will not only get them nowhere, but lose them the next elections? Hopefully, never, but, it does get rather tedious constantly having to rebut (with facts, rather then feelings) their constant hysteria.
We have heard the Left bloviate about Bush not "doing anything" prior to 9/11. Now we have confirmation that he was "doing something," in this case, continuing a Clinton era operation. Now they do not like it. They always want everything both ways.
