Recent story was published giving details about the Bush administration having access to financial transactions.
Here r the facts (source PBS The Newshour and BBC):
Bush admin was given access to the entire financial database. Bush admin claims they only 'looked' at international transactions. They did NOT get the required judge approval to investigate these records; therefore, broke US privacy laws.
Once again, all they had to do was get the necessary approval and this wouldn't be such an issue. AND ONCE AGAIN, the Bush admin. thinks it is above the law.
Now, I think this story is highly news worthy because I would like to know when privacy laws r being violated and I also would like to know every instance that Bush thinks he is above the law.
Bush has countered this by bombarding Fox News and talk radio with stories attacking the news agency that published this story stating. 'they weakened our country.. war on terror"
NO!!
Bush weakened our country by breaking the law AGAIN!
