Bush defends phone-tapping policy
So has Bush finally gone totally paranoid?
BBC source
US President George W Bush has again defended his decision to allow eavesdropping on Americans in the wake of the 2001 terror attacks.
I love these lines :
It was not in the best interests of the country for people to "play politics" with the Patriot Act, he said, while answering reporters' questions.
Mr Bush also said he expected a "full investigation" into who leaked information about the wiretap programme.
"My personal opinion is it was a shameful act for someone to disclose this very important programme in a time of war," he said.
"The fact that we're discussing this programme is helping the enemy," he added.
So will he make the next three years?
\"America is the only country that went from barbarism to decadence without civilization in between.\"
\"The reason we are so pleased to find other people\'s secrets is that it distracts public attention from our own.\"
Oscar Wilde(1854-1900)
