The Cheney Surveillance Program« Thread Started on Aug 18, 2007, 12:23am » --------------------------------------------------------------------------------The Cheney Surveillance ProgramSubmitted by Bob Fertik on August 16, 2007 - 9:32pmread at source> http://www.democrats.com/the-cheney-sur ... ogramThere has been much controversy over the NSA's warantless wiretapping program, but very little interest in its authorship. So if someone is going to be impeached for it, who should it be?Until now it was assumed to be Bush's program, largely because he went before TV cameras and spoke about it on 1/25/06:In the weeks following September the 11th, I authorized a terrorist surveillance program to detect and intercept al Qaeda communications involving someone here in the United States." So Bush signed the key document - and did so over 30 times by his own admission. But who created the program and persuaded Bush to approve it? It wasn't Gonzo, who proved all spring before Congress that he's too stupid to run a candy store, let alone a global wiretapping program.
