how the hell can he keep saying he (they) didn't lie?

i don't get it. HE LIED. it's right out there, HE (and the rest of his deferment inflicted cronies) LIED. 'they'' attacked us he said. yup, he's right THEY did attack us, but THEY do NOT equal the people of iraq (well NOW yes, on 9/11, NO). i've said it before, i KNOW our government has to do things they cannot reveal to us. i understand that and i understand it's for the safety of our nation and her people. what this administration has done is simply WRONG. just wrong in each and every way. everything bushwhacked touches (way prior to his being king) turns to a steaming pile of drek.

Bush Defends Spy Program and Denies Misleading Public
By ERIC LICHTBLAU
WASHINGTON, Jan. 1 - President Bush continued on Sunday to defend both the legality and the necessity of the National Security Agency's domestic eavesdropping program, and he denied that he misled the public last year when he insisted that any government wiretap required a court order.
"I think most Americans understand the need to find out what the enemy's thinking, and that's what we're doing," Mr. Bush told reporters in San Antonio as he visited wounded soldiers at the Brooke Army Medical Center.
"They attacked us before, they'll attack us again if they can," he said. "And we're going to do everything we can to stop them."
Mr. Bush's strong defense of the N.S.A. program, which he authorized in 2002 to allow some domestic eavesdropping without court warrants, came as a leading Democratic lawmaker called on the administration to make available current and former high-level officials to explain the evolution of the secret program.
Senator Arlen Specter, a Pennsylvania Republican and chairman of the Judiciary Committee, has already pledged to make hearings into the program one of his highest priorities.
In a letter to Mr. Specter on Sunday, Senator
Charles E. Schumer, a New York Democrat who is also on the committee, said the panel should also explore "significant concern about the legality of the program even at the very highest levels of the Department of Justice."
The New York Times reported Sunday that James B. Comey, then deputy attorney general, refused to sign on to the recertification of the program in March 2004. ..............
