Here's what CNN's national security correspondent David Ensor said at 11:58AM Eastern today:
DAVID ENSOR: The key question is whether laws have been broken here. This has probably been lawyered out pretty thoroughly by the telephone company lawyers and the US government. It's unlikely they're gonna find law-breaking... I'd be a little surprised to hear that any laws have been broken because companies and governments go into this kind of thing with their eyes pretty wide open.Why is David Ensor so sure that American companies wouldn't break the law? Why wouldn't they? Because companies don't do things like that? Can you spell Enron? And why so sure that Bush didn't break the law - because we know in the domestic spying realm Bush never breaks laws? Uh huh.
It would be nice if Mr. Ensor could be more careful about presenting both sides of the story, or at the very least try to avoid always reaching conclusions that favor the Bush administration, especially when there is no factual evidence to back up these conclusions.
