EFF: On warrantless wiretapping, Obama worse than Bush

According to the Electronic Frontier Foundation, Obama’s handling of warrantless wiretapping is worse than Bush.

For all you people that wanted “hope and change”, I guess you didn’t realize that change can also include “getting worse”.

Again, the gulf between Candidate Obama and President Obama is striking. As a candidate, Obama ran promising a new era of government transparency and accountability, an end to the Bush DOJ’s radical theories of executive power, and reform of the PATRIOT Act. But, this week, Obama’s own Department Of Justice has argued that, under the PATRIOT Act, the government shall be entirely unaccountable for surveilling Americans in violation of its own laws.

So all you Obama supporters out there. Please explain to me how this is good. How this is better.
