Bush NSA wiretapping scandal is not a liberal issue

It's an American issue. Here are a number of conservative opinions that do not support the Bushling view of unfettered presidental power:

The Wall Street Journal.

George Will.

Former Republican Congressman Bob Barr.

Pennsylvania Senator Arlen Specter.

Former Nixon aide John Dean.

I'll look for more conservative voices against presidental abuse of power, and I'll find them. In the meantime, Americans should remember: This is not a partisan issue. If more liberals than conservatives wish to stand up for constitutional protections, then this is an example of why "liberal" is a good and valued word.
