That Canadians and other foreigners do not care for GWB counts for zero (0) in my book. They look ridiculous criticizing a strong and just leader!
The comparison to China is... absurd.
Personally, I am glad the NSA is taking an aggressive stand. They dropped the ball way too often in the past. I don't want the NSA hamstrung by ridiculous rules. Remember 9/11? One of the major lessons is that foreign intelligence gathering needs to increase and the intelligence community needs to work closer together. If that steps on a few journalists with access to true state secrets, or if it offends persons in the US who consort with foreign terrorists, so be it. Even if it offends foreign pornographers, so be it.
Yes, other recent Presidents besides GWB have authorized wide ranging intelligence gathering in the name of national security. It has to continue.
