Is it my imagination or has Bush completely stopped making sense?

Okay now read what Bush said here;

President Bush again defended his program of warrantless surveillance Thursday, saying "there's no doubt in my mind it is legal."

"The program's legal, it's designed to protect civil liberties, and it's necessary," Bush told a White House news conference.

"But it's important for people to understand that this program is so sensitive and so important that if information gets out to how we run it or how we operate it, it'll help the enemy," he said. "Why tell the enemy what we're doing?"

"We'll listen to ideas. But I want to make sure that people understand that if the attempt to write law makes this program -- is likely to expose the nature of the program, I'll resist it," he said.

Okay what? Did he just say that we can't make a law allowing him to spy on us legally because we might tip off Al-Aaeda to the fact that he is spying on us illegally? Here let me read it again.

Yep, I think that is what he said. Does he really think that the terrorists are unaware that their phone calls and e-mails might have been peeked at? Does he think that he has to break the law or else the enemy will stop clumsily calling their friends in America and telling them when and where to plant the bombs? Have we caught them doing this?

You know if I were a cynic.......which I am not....entirely.....I might think that this president is much less concerned with the fact that the terrorists might find out what his methods are, and much more worried that Americans might find out what his methods are.

I mean if I were a cynic I might think that.

I also might think that when the president talks about the "enemy" that he is actually referring to the people in this country who disagree with him and not the enemy that attacked us on 9-11.

It sure is a good thing that I am not a cynic!
