Bush Busted!

Thanks Hardball! Below is the transcript from Bush's speech at Kleinshans Music Hall Buffalo, New York on April 20, 2004. Let's take a look at what Bush said on that day. And of course, the link to the full transcript is here also.

BUSH:So the first thing I want you to think about is, when you hear Patriot Act, is that we changed the law and the bureaucratic mind-set to allow for the sharing of information. It's vital. And others will describe what that means. Secondly, there are such things as roving wiretaps. Now, by the way, any time you hear the United States government talking about wiretap, it requires -- a wiretap requires a court order. Nothing has changed, by the way. When we're talking about chasing down terrorists, we're talking about getting a court order before we do so. It's important for our fellow citizens to understand, when you think Patriot Act, constitutional guarantees are in place when it comes to doing what is necessary to protect our homeland, because we value the Constitution. ...The Patriot Act changed that. So with court order, law enforcement officials can now use what's called roving wiretaps, which will prevent a terrorist from switching cell phones in order to get a message out to one of his buddies. Thirdly, to give you an example of what we're talking about, there's something called delayed notification warrants. Those are very important. I see some people, first responders nodding their heads about what they mean. These are a common tool used to catch mobsters. In other words, it allows people to collect data before everybody is aware of what's going on. It requires a court order. It requires protection under the law. We couldn't use these against terrorists, but we could use against gangs.

Bush both admits back in April 2004 that he knew he needed a court order and he knew it was an easy process that could be done after the fact. The man is so ignorant he can't now remember what he admitted to at that time. But, also remember, he was lying then because we know that he was already spying on American citizens for two years prior to this news conference. Bush is an admitted liar and I can tell you one thing, his lies about the lead up to the invasion of Iraq and now his lying about spying on American citizens (note to ignorant-read the 4th amendment-even you can understand it) is a crime far more serious than lying about consensual sex. Impeach that stupid bastard NOW! Transcript
