Dear Friends,
Due to unfortunate considerations of time and cost, Backwards City is no longer a print journal. However, we will maintain our presence on the web that, however meager, we hope you might enjoy.

Wire-tap goodness.
A reader from Atrios has assembled some tasty "Best of Bush Outright Lying About Wiretaps: Holiday Edition" quotes. I don't know if "fun" is the right word for the experience of reading this, but for some reason I call it pleasure. Also the blogger in question looks good in a tie. Snips:

Secondly, there are such things as roving wiretaps. Now, by the way, any time you hear the United States government talking about wiretap, it requires -- a wiretap requires a court order. Nothing has changed, by the way. When we're talking about chasing down terrorists, we're talking about getting a court order before we do so. It's important for our fellow citizens to understand, when you think Patriot Act, constitutional guarantees are in place when it comes to doing what is necessary to protect our homeland, because we value the Constitution.


- President G.W. Bush - April 20, 2004
