I have a long post below on the political implications of the recent FISA-NSA debate based on a wondefully candid interview by the El Paso Times with Mike McConnell, National Intelligence Director. But in this interview McConnell makes some statements which vindicate what I have been saying all along about the NSA-FISA dustup the NY […]

The liberal movement, mad from having to exist under two terms of President Bush, succumbed to their madness in two very dangerous ways. First, and borderline traitorous, was the exposure of our NSA surveillance program and how information regarding contacts between terrorists overseas and people here in the US that had once been thrown out […]

Why did key CIA people like Plame/Wilson (Plame was head of the IC Iraq Task Force) and a list of others come out over the past few years to the media to tarnish the Administration with stories of CIA torture, CIA prisons, NSA snooping and forged uranium trade documents? Seems they were trying to compensate […]

The liberal media outlets are so mind washed about the evil Bush they have focused their entire complaint about the NSA-FISA issue around Presidential abuse of power. In this scenario a President (represented by President Bush) goes beyond his constitutional powers and beyond the permission of the American people to grab power to enforce his […]

The Democrats, and their liberal media allies, have failed to face up to the fact that their razor thin margins of Congressional control do not translate into a mandate on National Security, and in fact they are still considered woefully lacking by the American people in this key area. By example, take the recent drubbing […]

In the recent House vote to codify in law the necessary changes between homeland security and overseas intelligence operations, we have to wonder why 187 Democrats, a massive majority of their ranks, opposed the updates to the FISA laws – especially in light of what these updates accomplished: The truth, however, is that the amendments […]

I was flying when the London plot to use gels or liquids to destroy airlines became public last year. I am flying again today, so the details coming out about last summer’s threat strikes very close to home: Terrorists who had planned to detonate gel-based explosives on U.S.-bound flights from London last August would have […]

We may be on the brink of a Constitutional showdown the likes of which this country has not seen in a couple hundred years. First we have the progress noted on the NSA leak investigation – which could end up leading to the halls of Congress if rumors are correct regarding hand written memos only […]

The timing of the FISA Court changes is apparently coming at a very opportune time. It seems the plotters in the recently bungled car bomb plot in London had contact info for people here in the US: As an American-born spokesman for Al Qaeda threatens to blow up American embassies abroad, intelligence gleaned from last […]

Clean Up: Moved all updates to the end in reverse chronological order (latest at the end). But one irony update for the top of this post. Seems the warrant to search Tamm’s house came from the FIS Court, since it was a “classified warrant”. Too funny Original Post: It seems the US Government has an […]
