Q But what he says what he’s doing is against the terrorists, that is necessary to preserve stability there against terrorist organizations?
MS. PERINO: We do not believe that any extra-constitutional means were necessary in order to help prevent terrorism in the region. And that’s why we are deeply disappointed with the actions, and we asked them to not do it.
Q Is it ever reasonable to restrict constitutional freedoms in the name of fighting terrorism?
MS. PERINO: In our opinion, no.

as they should hold the largest rogue state accountable for this very pledge set forth in the 2006 national security strategy:
“The United States and its allies in the War on Terror make no distinction between those who commit acts of terror and those who support and harbor them, because they are equally guilty of murder. … The world must hold those regimes to account.” [source]

Funny, but I don’t think any criminal court would ever accept that kind of reasoning.

I’m assuming that the whole press corps broke out guffawing over that one. I know I couldn’t have kept a straight face.
