Et tu, Colin?

From here:

Colin Powell on spying program:

“My own judgment is that — it didn’t seem to me, anyway, that it would have been that hard to go and get the warrants [through FISA]. And even in the case of an emergency, you go and do it [begin surveillance]. The law provides for that. And three days later, you let the court know what you have done, and deal with it that way.” From an interview with George Stephanopoulos featured on ABC’s “Nightline.” December 21, 2005
Even more telling were the comments under that post, and they types of folks that are praising Powell's "growing a spine." Colin Powell as politician was never about growing a spine. Colin Powell as politician is a RINO. Nothing more, nothing less.

Everybody keeps on ignoring the point that this whole issue is NOTHING NEW, and has been practiced in one form or another by every administration since FDR.
