If you'll reread the thread, I have clearly said I think it's wrong. What I find amazing, though, and have also said, is that this is being portrayed as "new". It isn't new. That's why I don't get the whole attitude of shock, particularly by members of congress. Well, actually I do get it - it isn't that they are shocked, and they know it's been happening forever, they are simply trying to play shocked for the political value of it.
I could make you really mad and link an executive order from Carter authorizing the same thing. Again, wrong. Again, not new.
