Nice work, Ted. I usually fall asleep long before the end.
I do question this BO quote, “nothing that I have learned since indicated that our intelligence community has sought to violate the law”
Say what??!!
In my sixth grade Civics class, I remember “no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized”
I wanna see the warrant against all 300 million citizens; along with the probable cause they had for each and every one of us
Nice dissection of Presnit O’s frog of a speech, Ted.
It’s a lot more funny to read that as “Fisting” instead of “Fisking” . . so I’m going with that
I certainly hope the NSA uses gloves…
