New NBC Poll-Solid Majority OPPOSES Warrantless Wiretaps (So there Tweety)

New NBC Poll Shows Soild Majority Opposes Warrantless Wiretaps
According to Chris Matthew, warrantless wiretapping of U.S. citizens is “a winning issue politically” for President Bush.

A new poll from NBC and the Wall Street Journal further undermines Matthew’s argument:



That’s a pretty big margin in favor of the President following the law. How long will the media keep repeating the “conventional wisdom” that warrantless wiretapping of U.S. citizens is a good issue for President Bush when most polls show the opposite?

1. As long as they can keep clouding the issue
They just need to keep saying that we dont' want to listen to Al Qaeda's phone calls and ignore the bit on needing a warrant to wiretap. I don't think if they can pull it off, we'll have to see.

2. Makes no difference now. Just ask the new Court if it was legal.
Polls and the Congress will be irrelevant this afternoon following Alito's swearing in.

3. Those who approve of warrantless taps? Fine
Get a law passed that approves it. In the meantime, your president is a criminal who must be impeached.
