Bush blasts House surveillance bill

Premium Link Upgrade


"WASHINGTON - President Bush said Thursday that the House Democrats' version of a terrorist-surveillance bill would undermine the nation's security and that if it reaches his desk, he will veto it.

Ratcheting up his rhetoric, Bush said, "The American people understand the stakes in this struggle. They want their ******** to be safe from ******."

Democrats launched their own broadside in response. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., suggested Bush's criticism was disingenuous.

"The president has said that our legislation will not make America safe," she told reporters. "The president is wrong, and he knows it."





Bush will try to fearmonger the dems to relent.So far the dems in the house and even Republican senator Arlene Specter at least are standing up for americans whose rights may have been ******** to seek some sort of legal remedy and let the lawsuits go forward. Bush wants to shut that down by giving the companies involved immunity.
