Democrats agree with President Bush that wiretapping is good for America?
Protect America Act passed the House and the Seante.
"The House passed this bill which would temporarily expand the executive branch’s authority to spy on suspected foreign terrorists without a court order, when communications are passing through the U.S."
"The Senate passed this bill which would temporarily expand the executive branch’s authority to spy on suspected foreign terrorists without a court order, when communications are passing through the U.S."
Is this constitutional?

3 AnswersMaintenance & Repairs1 decade agoIs John McCain's presidential campaign finished? Why?
The media seems to think it's because of his pro-Iraq stance.
"Tuesday's CBS Evening News and NBC Nightly News blamed Republican presidential candidate John McCain's reduced fundraising and low rank in the polls, which led two top advisers to leave the campaign, on McCain's view that U.S. troops must stay in Iraq -- not on how out of step he is with conservatives on the immigration bill he crafted with Ted Kennedy. CBS anchor Katie Couric declared: "No public figure has supported the President's Iraq policy more than Senator John McCain, and he's paid a heavy price for that..."
Is it because of Iraq? Every Republican candidate with the exception of Ron Paul supports the war, or is it because McCain was on the wrong side of the immigration bill?

22 AnswersDogs1 decade agoImmigration Bill is defeated. Is this a victory for the American people?
Republican Sens. Pete Sessions of Alabama and Jim DeMint of South Carolina remarked on the Senate floor that the sergeant-at-arms' office told them that the volume of calls leading up to the immigration vote was so high it had crashed the phone system, and no one was able to get through during morning debate.
9 AnswersElections1 decade agoGeorge Carlin's Solution to Save Gasoline?
Bush wants us to cut the amount of gas we use. The best way to stop using so much gas is to deport 11 million illegal imigrants!
That would be 11 million less people using our gas. The price of gas would come down.
Bring our troops home from Iraq to guard the border. When they catch an illegal immigrant crossing the border, hand him a canteen, rifle and some ammo and ship him to Iraq . Tell him if he wants to come to America then he must serve a tour in the military. Give him a soldier's pay while he's there and tax him on it.
After his tour, he will be allowed to become a citizen since he defended this country.
He will also be registered to be taxed and be a legal patriot. This option will probably deter illegal immigration and provide a solution for the troops in Iraq and the aliens trying to make a better life for themselves.
If they refuse to serve ship them to Iraq anyway, without the canteen, rifle or ammo.
Problem solved.

11 AnswersPolitics1 decade agoHow much is the gasoline tax in your state? What do you think it should it be?
The National tax rate is 18.4 cents per gallon. If Congress really wanted to help alleviate the price of gas for American consumers, especially lower income Americans, wouldn't it help if they suspended the tax? What about your state? How much do they charge? Check out the link. You might be shocked. Blame Big Oil all you want, but don't let a bunch of elitist politicians off the hook.
The budget next year is for 2.9 trillion dollars and they still can't balance the budget.
