Dec. 17: President says he personally approved eavesdropping in U.S. and blasts lawmakers for revealing secret program.

Updated: 6:12 p.m. ET Dec. 17, 2005
WASHINGTON - President Bush said Saturday he personally has authorized a secret eavesdropping program in the U.S. more than 30 times since the Sept. 11 attacks and he lashed out at those involved in publicly revealing the program.

"This is a highly classified program that is crucial to our national security," he said in a radio address delivered live from the White House's Roosevelt Room.

"This authorization is a vital tool in our war against the terrorists. It is critical to saving American lives. The American people expect me to do everything in my power, under our laws and Constitution, to protect them and their civil liberties and that is exactly what I will continue to do as long as I am president of the United States," Bush said.

Angry members of Congress have demanded an explanation of the program, first revealed in Friday's New York Times and whether the monitoring by the National Security Agency violates civil liberties.

Program constitutional, Bush says
Bush said the program was narrowly designed and used "consistent with U.S. law and the Constitution." He said it is used only to intercept the international communications of people inside the United States who have been determined to have "a clear link" to al-Qaida or related terrorist organizations.

The program is reviewed every 45 days, using fresh threat assessments, legal reviews by the Justice Department, White House counsel and others, and information from previous activities under the program, the president said.

Without identifying specific lawmakers, Bush said congressional leaders have been briefed more than a dozen times on the program's activities.

The president also said the intelligence officials involved in the monitoring receive extensive training to make sure civil liberties are not violated.
Do you even know who Stalin was? I'd suggest you read up on him before you make ludicrous comments like this.

It isn't Bush spending all this money, it's Congress. They're the ones that write all the checks, it's just Bush that signs them. Let me explain that last part before you guys go insane. Congress writes them, but it's Bush's name that takes all the blame.

The Clinton administration spent tons, too. During Clinton's "peace time" years, he increased national debt by 1,200,000 dollars, and he wasn't even funding a war.

Er... I know this is very very late but people are looking at this like Bush is always goodness. I'm not one of those kids who hate Bush, nor do I love him but besides killing million of people, look at it this way.

Stalin --> Modernize Russia, boosting economy of Russia and industrializing in a few years to which Britiain and Germany took many many more
