Bush's secret spying unnecessary for intelligence gathering. |
"If he needs a wiretap, the authority is already there -- the Federal
Intelligence Surveillance Act," Feingold said. "They can ask for a warrant
to do that and even if there's an emergency situation they can go for 72
hours as long as they give notice at the end of 72 hours."
Feingold said "it's a sad day" in light of what he heard Bush say.
"He authorized these wiretaps even though there was no specific law allowing
it," Feingold said. "He's trying to claim somehow that the authorization for
the Afghanistan attack after 9/11 permitted this and that's just absurd."

Doomed to defeat by the superior Allied forces, it was thought that the
forces of fascism had been routed and that the world was safe for democracy.
The irony is that the intelligence apparatus of the U.S. government saved
many of the most hardened Nazi war criminals from a certain execution in
order to recruit them as scientists, spies and guerrilla warriors in the
anticipated war with the Soviet Union. And this had dire effects on our
country's democracy.
Many Americans may not be aware of this wide spread recruitment of SS and
Gestapo alumni into our intelligence agencies but it has had a profound
effect on the shaping of our domestic and foreign policy, often with ruinous
consequences. The legacy of this incorporation of Nazis into the CIA and
U.S. military has been a half a century of support for fascist regimes,
juntas, death squads, torture and the overthrow of democratically elected
governments around the world.
