Chicken George the Fearmonger

Aren't we all just incredibly tired of the bullshit that comes out of the mouth of George W. Bush? Seriously, every time this guy opens his mouth, my spine curves, my ears bleed and my brain aches.

Once again, Chimpy has stated that "our country is in more danger of an attack" because of Congress' failure to adopt a Senate bill that includes telecom immunity protecting them from liability in possible lawsuits for violating Fourth Amendment rights.

"American citizens must understand, clearly understand that there's still a threat on the homeland. There's still an enemy which would like to do us harm," Bush said. "We've got to give our professionals the tools they need, to be able to figure out what the enemy is up to so we can stop it."

At yet at the same time, the national director of intelligence Mike McConnell, told Renee Montagne the main issue is liability protection for the private sector on NPR radio this morning, also stating that surveillence already underway will not expire for one year. Of course his excuse is that the telecom companies are more and more reticent to continue the program as time goes on for fear of lawsuits. But again, all that's needed is a warrant and poof!, liability is not an issue.

As usual, Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow explain it so simply, even a moron can understand it... uh, that is, almost any moron.
