Default Re: If it turns out that Bush broke a law with domestic spying....

It was hidden from the american people. Where exactly does the buck stop? Not with the president apparently. You cant pass the blame for this. He knowingly violated the 4th amendment and he certainly violated the requirement (Article II, sec. 3) that the President "shall take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed."

1. Congressional oversight IS the American people on classified intelligence matters. Unless you think we should let all our enemies just know everything we are doing.

2. You can't quote the constitution about the president's not taking care to see laws are observed without specifying what laws you think were broken. So what laws were?

3. There is no crisis. Only a strawman crisis asserted by those who wish to bash the administration's handling of the war on terror.
