Anyway, I guess the leak was to make Americans aware of who Bush was spying beside the "Enemies of America".
Just like Nixon did, he created his own dirty list of people and groups that were a tread to his government.
But occurs we must all sacrifice for Bush, you know. . . our constitutional rights, civil liberties and our rights to question and protest against the government, so I guess Nixon will win this time.

Well Muaddib is already known that Bush wasn't only spying to Al-qaida friendly people.
So what is the reason to spying on American groups? I guess he just wanted to know when the next protest was to happen so he could get enough security to keep them away.

The claim of "protecting national security" can be used to hide pretty much any nasty doings.
