Hmm. Seems they both claim unfettered executive authority. I question why Bush doesn't use his authority on more useful things that wiretaps, like compliant interns.

Let's assume the some part of the wiretaps or datamining et al etc etc etc were legally problematic. I have less of a problem, especially during wartime, concluding that they were violating some partisan statute in pursuit of national security (and actually getting results in that regard), than I do with Clinton's lawbreaking. His was just plain out and out stupid and his stupidity was pointless. He could have fucked just about any woman in the country on discreet terms (and he may have). Instead he engaged in behaviour that was as indiscrete as indiscreete could be. To me that shows a serious lack of judgment and I have a problem with someone who can't make simple judgement calls being in the Oval Office.
