Conservatives On Spy Scandal: Pffffftttt

It's not even a remote surprise that Bush supporters are unphased by this news.

There is nothing, no civil liberty, that they wouldn't sacrifice to our leader so he can save us from the bad men. Granted, if Al Gore or John Kerry were President today and were engaged in these activities, they'd be storming the Capital with flaming sticks and pitchforks. But when George W. Bush does it (or does anything, doesn't matter what), it is a-okay. Makes sense.

Whenever I hear a story like this, and in turn the conservatives blowing it off like it's a non-issue (as I have seen on a number of sites), I ask myself this: WWHICWP?

What Would Happen If Clinton Was President? That 'liberal media' was on Clinton on everything. To many conservatives, Bill Clinton was one of the most destructive Presidents ever. Think of these scandals: Whitewater, Travelgate, OMG Clinton got a haircut at the airport, OMG the White House took contributions to let diplomats stay in the Lincoln Bedroom, and BlowJobGate....

Now think of these scandals: Secret energy meetings, 9/11 warnings ignored, stonewalling post-9/11 investigations, prisoners held without trial, Osama gets away, faulty WMD intel (Niger forgeries, bogus 9/11-Saddam links, etc) leads to disastrous war in Iraq, no plans for post-war Iraq, Abu Ghraib and systematic torture, no-bid contracts to Halliburton who overcharges the army and 'loses' millions in Iraq, CIA agent outed by White House official, Scooter Libby perjures himself in said case, Bush cuts vacation short to save braindead Terri Schiavo, reporters paid by White House to promote agenda, Jeff Gannon snuck into White House press corps and has secret visits to White House, Karl Rove under investigation, Bush refuses to cut vacation for approaching hurricane, Katrina aftermath botched, torture ban veto threatened, Supreme Court woes, and war continues, and now a secret spying program... To name the most offensive.

Yea, I don't know why I find George W. Bush to be worse.
