Comment: There is a key point for the NSA surveillance that I don't understand. Why is the tap-now-approve-within-72hrs not fast enough? How can this be too much of a delay. How is it a delay?

This points to the key problem I have with this President as a person. Much of his logic is flawed. His policies are based on his logic and reasoning.

His personal secretiveness does not serve him well because his logic and reasoning is inadequate. If his logic and reasoning was consistent, then his secrectiveness would be acceptable and a virtue.

Instead it give the notion that he is constantly hiding something he did wrong. It is simply a matter of finding and deciding what it was - Katrina, WMD, Valerie Plame? But that is right, this man does not make mistakes.

Or is it possible that he is showing signs of true guilt about those past mistakes by attempting to appear strong on this issue?
