New fans for wiretapping
Disloyal Opposition
by JD Tuccille
08/08/07
Not surprisingly, questions are being raised (by me, among others) about Congress’s approval of the Bush administration’s wiretapping bill. The conventional wisdom is that Democrats won control of Congress on a wave of public revulsion toward the war in Iraq and related incursions into civil liberties here at home. The Republicans got booted so that Democrats could at least provide some legislative opposition to the Bush administration’s excesses. So why did the Democrats vote to expand the government’s power to spy on Americans’ without warrants?
