On Countdown with Keith Olberman on Friday night, Johnathan Turley of George Washington Law School was asked about a US News and World Report article that is coming out saying someone from the Bush White House has said the President has the power to call for warrantless physical searches under the same power they have to perform warrantless demostic wiretaps. Turley response?
That would effectively remove the 4th Ammendment from the United States constitution...(they) treat the constitution as a legal technicality instead of the thing we are trying to protect.Thanks to Can O Fun for the video.
This is just another example of Bush's pre-1776 mentality and reminds of a quote by Russ Feingold.
Without freedom, we are not America. If we don't preserve our liberties, we cannot win this war, no matter how many terrorists we capture or kill.
