Our clueless and dictatorial (bad combination) CEO president claimed that people who supported U.S. District Judge Anna Diggs Taylor’s ruling that National Security Agency warrantless wiretapping is unconstitutional “simply do not understand the nature of the world in which we live.”
Wrong. Rather, HE simply doesn’t understand the constitutional world in which we live. He and his neocon buddies have been so fond of parroting the phrase “rule of law” in conjunction with the invasion of Iraq and other matters of foreign affairs.
Well, Judge Taylor’s ruling said, “THIS is the rule of law in the United States of America.”
And, as far as “the world in which we live,” how many times must we repeat Ben Frankin’s injunction to value liberty more than liberty-lessening “security” before the portion of Red Staters less than total knuckleheads actually starts getting it?
George W. Bush is NOT the hereditary king. Out of some mix of self-righteousness, Messianic delusision, cluelessness and assumption of the mantle of a family legacy, he has clearly shown himself to be the court jester, but that’s another thing entirely.
