The Obama administration has dismissed calls by a federal judge to disclose secret documents on warrantless wiretapping, citing national security concerns.

Barry continues to make Bush look good, and he makes it look easy.


Oh, and for those who suck at the Internet:

Under Obama, wiretap docs. rest with torture photos

Obama will continue many of the previous administration policies, after some public shows of disdain and some waffling, because he will discover that in the real world you have to act. This isn't an election campaign or an academic discussion at Harvard.

"The Justice Department filing said President Barack Obama has authorized access to classified information on a "need-to-know" basis and argued that the government "cannot be sanctioned for its determination that plaintiffs do not have a need to know classified information."

It's tough cleaning up the evil, illegal deeds of Bushy. Obama can't risk the safety of the country to prove Bushy wrong. Anybody with a clue knows he was wrong.

It's just another shet sandwhich Bushy left on the WH porch. Either expose Bushy for what he is and put America's safety at risk or just take a bite of the sandwhich. Obama sucked it up and took a bite. I give him credit for doing what is probably difficult for him.

Of course you do. You're blind.

I do not believe in government or any other kinds of secrecy. These documents need to become public knowlege.

Remember the wiretaps continue?


Then please tell us why Barry continues to do something that anyone with a clue knows is wrong.

I just told you...Cleaning up illegal deeds are tough. Where does it say that Obama is an advocate of "warrantless wiretapping"? He doesn't want classified info released but I don't see where he is an advocate of warrantless wiretaps.

And I have a bridge to sell you.

In a stunning defense of President George W. Bush's warrantless wiretapping program, President Barack Obama has broadened the government's legal argument for immunizing his Administration and government agencies from lawsuits surrounding the National Security Agency's eavesdropping efforts.

Who told you that Bush and company did illegal acts? Are you especially privileged to knowledge that no one else has? If so, can you share their names? I would love to take them to court. Oh, no, you can't share the names because they might retaliate.

Point is, you don't know. You are only making a political statement and the facts are irrelevant to your politics.

I certainly don't know either. Just like the 11 herbs and spices of the Kentucky Fried Chicken recipe, maybe it is good that one person doesn't know all the ingredients.

I only know this. From Sept 12, 2001 until Jan 20, 2009, my family prospered in a safe and mostly happy environment. From Sept 12 until Jan 2, 2007, my family's investments were safe, I didn't pay enormous tax bills, and the most I paid for gasoline was $ 1.87 per gallon.

In walked the gang of Pelosi, Reid, & Co, and my life changed mostly for the worse. How about yours?

So to clean up past illegal actions, Barry needs to continue it in the future?

He could stop any future wiretaps, but he doesn't. That seems to say advocate right there. Barry is an advocate of gubmint takeovers and wealth distribution and he did that in a hurry didn't he? He could have just as quickly stopped what anyone with a clue knows is wrong.

I guess what you are saying is Barry doesn't have a clue, on that we agree.
