Dubya says: PLEASE let us eavesdrop on citizens

Uh Oh.

--

The Bush administration asked a federal judge yesterday to suspend her order barring eavesdropping on suspected terrorists, saying any halt in the surveillance would leave the nation more vulnerable to terrorist attack.
The Justice Department asked U.S. District Judge Anna Diggs Taylor to put her ruling on hold while the government appeals it. The judge on Aug. 17 barred government surveillance of suspected al-Qaeda operatives' telephone calls to and from the United States without court warrants.
