The other day I wrote:

That one of the wingnuts would eventually come up with a "Clinton did it too!," defense of the latest "let's piss on the constitution," party. Well I have a message for my Wingnut friend... If Clinton did it, he was wrong too, as was Carter and any other President who chose to circumvent the constitution. We dont have KINGS in this Country, and we have three branches of Government for a reason. That reason may not be obvious to those who are so full of their own self rightousness that they cant see the threat to ALL of us. But our founders had the right idea.

I have seen the Clinton meme all over the Rightsphere, and Jeff Goldstein has went into spin overdrive on justifying the snooping, all under the guise of... "Gee I really don't know, but I suspect this is much ado about nothing." Hehe... Truth is, the Clinton thing is just another smokescreen...

Oops, I forgot to give credit on this one. Thanks Rogue!

As is typical, Bush apologists can only justify his actions when their defenses ignore, avoid or misstate facts.
