In a disturbing article in The Times on Wednesday, James Risen and Eric Lichtblau said that Congressional investigations suggest that the National Security Agency continues to routinely collect Americans’ telephone calls and e-mail messages — perhaps by the millions.

The law does not allow fishing trips through Americans’ communications and only permits the government to read e-mails or listen to phone calls in which one party is “reasonably believed” to be outside the United States.

During the Bush years, we heard the Left claim that this violated the Constitution.

We heard repeated calls for impeachment from the Left.

Well, he's had the power to end such spying for months -- and hasn't.

So where are the calls for impeachment from those who demanded that sanction against George W. Bush?
