Do you have any facts to support your claim that Clinton and Carter did the same thing Bush is doing?

It is well documented that ALL THREE of these Presidents have authorized wiretapping. Others have as well.
You are back to your old habit of putting words in my mouth. Nowhere in my writings have I "claimed to know all the details of FISA". I'm merely pointing out that you and many other finger-pointers have obviously already declared Bush guilty in your minds, when NOTHING has been investigated or proven in regards to this situation.
Of course the Bush-haters want to see him hung out to dry for this.
And of course the Bush-lovers wish the whole thing would just go away.
....As for myself, I'm all ears. And unlike YOU, I'm not slapping any "guilty" OR "innocent" labels on anyone before all of the laundry is done.
