"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."

Bastards.

They stood there in front of Congress and insisted they weren't price gouging, that their prices were dictated solely by the market.

Then they set profit record after profit record.

I'm sure they just got really, really good at their business all of a sudden.

As if we needed more evidence the Bush White House is completely and utterly incompetent.

Here's a company with a potential treatment for radiation poisoning, which could kill hundreds of thousands in a nuclear terrorist attack. (Which, of course, the White House is underfunding the prevention of by ignoring the security of the Russian nuclear stockpile.) Yet George Bush's allegedly pro business administration will not give this company the support it needs to go forward with a life saving treatment.

Once again, if another disaster happens, America, YOURE ON YOUR OWN.

This administration doesnt care about you.
