Federal Judge Ruling: George W. Bush is a Felon
For more than a year, Congress has been arguing over how far to expand the government's ability to install blanket surveillance equipment inside the United States without court oversight. That's a purely political question.
WELL, George won again!

This is old news, but Oh so interesting being that congress just caved in to him AGAIN on this issue! I am ALL ABOUT keeping the Country safe, but totally AGAINST almost ALL of this dudes ongoing antics. The men and the funds needed to keep this county safe are off in Iraq fighting a lost cause while we sit totally under funded (BANKRUPT) and un defended.

Chief Judge Vaughn Walker of the US District Court in California has ruled that President George W. Bush is a felon. The ruling stems from the case of Al-Harmain Islamic Foundation Inc. v Bush, a case which will now be remembered as making it official that Bush's program of 'warrantless spying' is illegal.
Judge Walker held that the president lacks the authority to disregard the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, or FISA -- which means Bush's warrantless electronic surveillance program was illegal. Whether Bush will ultimately be held accountable for violating federal law with the program remains unclear. Bush administration lawyers have fought vigorously -- at times using brazen, logic-defying tactics -- to prevent that from happening. The court battle will continue to play out as Congress continues to battle over recasting FISA and possibly granting immunity to telecom companies involved in the illegal surveillance. --Suing George W.
