Bush Calls Lawmakers 'Irresponsible'

WASHINGTON — President Bush said Saturday that lawmakers' failure to renew an eavesdropping law will make it more difficult to track terrorists and "we may lose a vital lead that could prevent an attack on America."

Democrats faulted the president, who taped his weekly radio address before he left on a trip in Africa, for "whipping up false fears and creating artificial confrontation."

"Their true concern here is not national security," Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said in a statement. "Rather they want to protect the financial interests of telecommunications companies and avoid judicial scrutiny of their warrantless wiretapping program."

At issue is a law that made it easier for the government to spy on foreign phone calls and e-mails that pass through the United States. The expiration time: midnight Saturday.

- Well I'm sure there are more than a few skid marks right about now in some telecom-executive's shorts. So send those toilet paper donations right away. And I'm gonna have to give some props to Nancy. You done good. Finally. (I still can't forgive you for the "table-thing" though).

And after all that money they spent in the Senate. Got that money from the telecoms for absolutely nothing, didn't you Jay? You scoundrel. Oh, and Harry, its now: Harry - 0 / Nancy - 1. Balls in your court.....
