Apparently it is OK to violate the FISA laws and spy on the privacy of Americans. The fact that public officials can have their business communications examined in their roles as public servants is only fair. What goes around comes around when it comes to this stuff.

"That prospect has the White House nervous. Some Republicans fear the e-mails may contain previously unavailable inside information about the administration's political activities."

Why the lack of neo-con postings? Don't you have anything to say for yourselves?

Even rats know to leave a sinking ship.

(to neo-con zombies incapable of independent thought: the implication is that rats are smarter than you.)

Whether it's back channel or back door games, these Foley's don't like to play by the rules do they?

What a waste of our hard earned dollars...

"the Republican National Committee provided Rove and others with laptops and a "back channel email and paging system" to be used alongside their government-issued equipment."

Such a nice gift, wonder who paid for it...

Now would be a great time for a huge computer crash, Mr. Rove.

Maybe that's where they'll find the missing 16 days of communication between Gonzo and Bonzo!

So,
It's okay for the reich wing to illegally eavesdrop, listen in on lilterally any form of communication I may have...Yet they attempt to conceal their own communications?

This paranoid administration is un-fit to lead.

Oh oh, the ghost of Nixon's Watergate tapes has just surfaced.

"some e-mails obtained through ongoing inquiries suggest the system may have been used to conceal activities such as contacts with convicted lobbyist Jack Abramoff"

No need to make useless statements or answer the obvious! The U.S. has tried Plan "A", "B" ... "X" ... and there are only 26 letters in the Alphabet! What happens after the U.S. uses up Plan "Z"?

Of course it hasn't made Iraq safer. It's like a poker game, we up the ante, they see it. Someone needs to fold. I don't see either side doing so. Bush seems to think they are bluffing. They aren't.
Our problem is, we are playing under their house rules - which they don't post and change at their whim. And, they have an unlimited supply of "terrorists", whereas our soldiers are wearing thin. In fact, the longer we are there, the more fighters that volunteer for the other side.
