Rep. Jane Harman Focus In Yet Another Warrantless Wiretap Scandal

Many different sources are talking about the latest scandal surrounding the warrantless wiretapping program. Incriminating evidence against California rep. Jane Harman was apparently captured some time ago on a legal NSA wiretap. However, Attorney General Gonzales supposedly intervened to drop the case against her because (and this is where the irony meter explodes) Bush officials wanted her to be able to publicly defend the warrantless wiretap program. "Jane Harman, in the wake of the NSA scandal, became probably the most crucial defender of the Bush warrantless eavesdropping program, using her status as 'the ranking Democratic on the House intelligence committee' to repeatedly praise the NSA program as 'essential to US national security' and 'both necessary and legal.'"

Re:Ranking Democratic?

Hey, moron. The Democratic Party has been called that for a lot longer than the 6-7 years the Republicans have been saying "Democrat Party." Another point, moron. No one is trying to play the word control game except the party trying to CHANGE someone's name!

Technically, "Republican" is a more accurate definition of what our system of government is since we're a Republic and NOT a true Democracy!
