White House Ecstatic

I heard a comment in passing on one of the talk shows this morning that has me troubled.

Someone quoted a White House official as having said he couldn't believe how the Democrats were falling into the trap that Bush had set for them by complaining about the President's illegal directive to spy on Americans without a warrant. He apparently pointed to the polls showing that the public has not found anything wrong with Bush's efforts to infringe our civil liberties and invade our privacy. And, he indicated that by voting against the Patriot Act and now complaining about the spying, the Democrats had set themselves up once again to be trampled on as weaklings and traitors by the Republicans. He said the White House was jumping for joy over their triumph, believing that this was the turning point in their effort to win in 2006.

Damn, I hope he's wrong. If the American public thinks it's okay for a president to ignore and violate the law, they deserve to have this guy as their president, but what about the rest of the world?
