Mojo-
I believe you may not fully be grasping the concept of checks and balances. What congressional laws are the Executive branch executing that allow for such broad, unchecked wire tapping? Again, please link me to such items in written law. In fact, AFAIK, Congress is the body trying (and not being cooperated with) to investigate the matter further.
As for the funding, I believe there are limits to funding, both regarding amounts and sources. Isn't this the case? Also, I'm speaking to the possibility, which appears to be growing over recent months, that the election itself was bought, not that Bush's campaign was funded, per se. Yes yes, crinkle crinkle... you're very clever Mojo. But you didn't really respond to my comments or questions. Do you have such blind faith in the government that you believe any of these ideas are simply obsurd? What would have to happen to convince you otherwise? Are there parameters or criteria that the government, in your eyes, currently meets that would have to be surpassed before you'd believe that something larger may be at play? As I recall, last time this country went to war for no founded reason, it was a VERY unpopular act. It seems to be unpopular now, with us in Iraq, but less seems to be getting done about it. The people are more complacent, more ignorant or simply more lazy and are unwilling to go to battle about this. In fact, whats-her-name that camped out in front of The Ranch was deemed to be a bit of a kook herself. If I were to suggest our current state of willingness to go along with things was, say, caused by governmnet tainted water... then I'd think perhaps this was the wrong forum. However, I believe nothing of the sort. I also, however, don't believe that things are on the up-and-up (even to the typical level of politics) regarding our current president and the people that work directly around him.
