NSA spying on US Citizens

[U-214]

Basically, it's all about whether you think George Bush in an honest and trustworthy individual

I think it's not as simple as that.It's also about whether someone is above the law just because he is in position of power or not.Laws exists exactly for that,to remove the subjective factor from the equation.

I really can't understand why Bush authorized this illegal spying,while the various agencies could have obtained the permission anyway,by legally asking it from a judge.Which judge would refuse to intercept a subject that has "links with terrorists" as bush said?Or judges are also suspicious of treason or collaborating with the terrorists so they would alert he terrorists?Unless,their motives were less noble,such as not to be presentable before a judge...Where there is smoke,there is fire.
