State senator says national Guard part of Nationwide domestic spying effort.

A special California National Guard unit that was disbanded last year amid suspicion it was engaged in domestic spying may have been part of a nationwide effort to monitor the activities of U.S. citizens, a state senator charged Tuesday.

Internal National Guard documents seem to suggest, according to Sen. Joe Dunn, D-Garden Grove, that Guard units in nine other states may have had similar spying initiatives when California's unit became public last summer.

``Because they were all created at about the same time and, to the best of our knowledge thus far seemingly engaged in similar activity, including domestic surveillance activities,'' Dunn said, ``we could only conclude that it had been part of a concentrated or coordinated effort to create such units around the country.''

You know I have become so cynical under this administration that I reserve no doubt that this allegation is correct. I would be surprised at this point to learn that any accusations of spying on Anericans were proven to be false.

I am sure that God whispered in Bush's ear that spying on our citizens was perfectly legal despite what the laws of man might say.

"Who are you going to believe George, the law or the voices in your head?"
